- Tess flies high on the slopes. In 2011, she was the top skier (ages six to 13) in the Rocky Mountain Freestyle Devo Series. She won all seven events, including the Mogul Championships at Telluride in March. The secret to her success? "In my head I visualize a good, solid performance," says Tess, who will compete against teens and 20-year-olds this season. "Then I remind myself: keep my hands in front, chin up, stay balanced, and have fun."
