Chasing Dreams on Snow: Skida Proudly Celebrates Four Olympians

Kai Miller · February 4, 2026 ·

Feb 4, 2026 | Skida

At Skida, our roots run deep in skiing, community, and stories of the people who make winter sport magical. From our home in Vermont to the forests and hills of New England and beyond, we’ve always believed that supporting athletes’ dreams and pursuits is what elevates and moves our sport forward. As we head into the 2026 Games we are cheering on our four remarkable athletes headed who have qualified to compete at Milan Cortina – Paula Moltzan, Gus Schumacher, Ryan Cochran-Siegle, and Julia Kern.

New England nordic skiing, alpine programs, and grassroots communities like those fostered by NENSA create pathways for athletes to grow, push boundaries, and find joy in every glide and turn. We’re proud to support athletes shaped in this vibrant ecosystem, and we’re especially honored to see them representing the US on the world’s biggest stage.

We have created collections with each of these athletes that give back to their pursuits on the world stage. Explore our athlete collections Athlete Collaborations and our U.S. Ski & Snowboard collaboration.

As these four athletes take the world stage in Milan Cortina, we’re reminded that sport is more than medals and results. It’s about rootedness and growth, purpose, and connection. 

Organizations like NENSA fuel this ecosystem. From youth programs to regional camps to community events, NENSA makes skiing accessible, joyful, and full of possibility. It’s where the next generation begins, chasing their first turns, feeling the thrill of speed, and learning that every finish line is a new starting point.

Help us in celebrating our athletes on the World Stage as they chase their dreams!
