Default Colorado Deaf Shred

Hi I am Allison Hopkins. I go by the name Allie. I live in Colorado since I was a baby. I've been shredding for a decade now. I attained AASI level 1 certification in March 2008 at Keystone Resort.

Yes I am Deaf...totally deaf I mean I can't hear at all. When you scream, I will not hear and respond to you at all.

This season I will ride at Powderhorn and Copper Mountain...perhaps other resorts in Summit county as well.

I'd love to make new friends with shredders. Shred the gnar!!!

Welcome to the forum. Congrats on your level 1.. I work with the vissually impaired programs we have at Mt. Hood Meadows. I would like to get some ideas from you about working with hearing impaired riders from a teaching perspective. Drop by the instructor section sometime.

I know Lauren and Jenny. That's two people I was talking about. I'd like to meet the rest too. They can contact me if they want.
