NASTAR is the acronym for the National Standard Race and is the largest public recreational grassroots ski race program in the world. Developed in 1968, NASTAR has certainly undergone numerous changes over the years, but its mission has essentially remained the same… To provide a fun, competitive and easily accessible recreational ski racing program that, through the development of a handicap system, allows skiers of all ages and abilities a means to compare themselves against their friends, family members and the U.S. Ski Team regardless of when and where they race.

ASRA

This series of races is open to all recreational skiers, regardless of ability. Whether you compete as an individual or on a ski club team, the ASRA SERIES has what you're looking for. Good courses, great people, and lots of fun! Events are held in three regions, giving skiers the opportunity to race, and to meet new people. Experts climb to new levels, and beginning racers mingle with the "top dawgs". Everyone learns new techniques and picks up equipment and tuning tips. Ability levels of participants range from intermediate to super elite; ages from 5 to 75.

Regional races feature medals for age-groups, and the events have random prize drawings so you may win sponsor prizes even if you're not fast. Competitors also accrue points for season awards and the opportunity to participate in the ASRA Nationals.
