BIO
Camden hails from Eagan, Minn. having cut his teeth at all 300 vertical feet of Buck Hill, before relocating to Colorado and skiing for Team Summit. He got his first taste of racing with the Stifel U.S. Alpine Ski Team in 2021 while training and competing in Italy with the National Development Group. During his first trip, he snagged two slalom victories in Italian national junior races. Now he has shot his way up to the C team where his best event is slalom!
Some of Palmquist's top results in the 2024 season include a NorAm win in slalom at Burke Mountain and three total NorAm podiums in slalom. Palmquist also closed the season with a third place at the U.S. National Championships in Sun Valley.
When he's not skiing, Camden likes to hang out with friends, mountain bike, and golf (when he's in Minnesota).
"I wanted to show we can ski tech here in America. It was just kind of that night before it started I kind of realized, ‘I can win this.’ I think I had adjusted to the racing up there (Italy) really well."
