2015-2016 USTSA Membership
Support the United States Telemark Ski Association with your membership. We are working hard to bring you telemark news, training tips and races in the US. With new energy in New England, we hope to add a couple of races in the east as well as building events in the west. We have memberships for all levels of interest. For the very competitive, including those who want their points tracked for the season, the Competitive Membership at $60 is for you. Are you an alumni team member? We could sure use your support through an Alumni Membership at $20 for the year. Juniors, age 14 and under can get started with a Junior Membership at $20.
