Stanley Buzek joins the Stifel U.S. Alpine Ski Team for his first year with the national squad. Buzek started skiing at the young age of two with his parents at Crested Butte. He was instantly drawn into the sport through its feeling of freedom and strong community.

Prior to the team Buzek’s biggest accomplishments include winning the U18 Nationals slalom title and scoring a top 30 result in his first NorAm, but his aspirations are strong. 

In the 2023-24 season Buzek had a stellar performance at the Junior World Championships slalom race where he got fifth place. He also achieved one of his season goals, a NorAm podium, which he secured in slalom. Buzek is a clear up-and-coming slalom skier to watch. 

When Buzek is not skiing, you can find him mountain biking fishing or skateboarding.
