Corey Scott Dowd Started Skiing At the Age Of 4

Corey Scott Dowd is a sports enthusiast who loves playing different sports. He has participated in basketball, soccer, and ran cross country. But he has a special love for skiing and is an avid skier. He started taking skiing lessons when he was just four years old. At the end of lessons that year, he got onto a regular ski lift, got off with some encouragement, and sailed down the green slopes like he had been skiing a while. 

His grandparents started taking him to Colorado where he learned how to snow ski. Then, gradually, it became an annual trip. They went to Frisco, Colorado because they had a condo up there and it was relatively close to his favorite ski slopes. As one of the famous sayings goes, “Practice makes perfect”, Corey Scott Dowd practiced skiing for years and honed his skills. Over the years, he has progressed to a blue run then a black run skier, although he has had his share of “yard sales” (crashes in which equipment goes in all directions). He has skied mostly in Colorado at Breckenridge, Copper, Keystone, and A-Basin, as well as Vail.  His favorite hills and lifts are at Copper Mountain. 

In his most adventurous times, he has skied moguls, slaloms and done slope-edge tree skiing.  While Corey Scott Dowd has snowboarded, the balance requirements are different and he much prefers skiing. He always tries to fill his life with adventures and memories.
