PROFESSIONAL FREESKIER FROM CV ON THE MEND IN PITTSBURGH
Chartiers Valley ’ s Tom Wallisch , professional freeskier , is coming home to get back on his feet and prepare for his return to skiing , with goals of establishing outreach efforts to area youth , after sustaining an ACL injury to his right knee .
Following surgery and initial rehabilitation in Salt Lake City , Utah , where he is based , Wallisch will complete a comprehensive sports performance and athletic rehabilitation program under the direction of Frank Velasquez Jr ., ATC , CSCS , Director , AHN Sports Performance , at the AHN Sports Complex at Cool Springs in Bethel Park . Wallisch intends to make a full return to skiing in October .
A 2011-2015 U . S . Ski Team competitor , Wallisch holds the world record for longest rail slide at 424 feet . He is also a two-time X Games gold medalist , 2013 FIS World Champion , 2012 Dew Tour winner , the 2014 ESPN Action Sport Athlete of the Year , and a two-time top AFP-ranked slopestyle skier .
Wallisch will train under Velasquez according to an individualized strength and conditioning program .
When in Salt Lake City , he will continue to train according to his AHN-prescribed program and with regular touchpoints with Velasquez , who is a certified athletic trainer and strength and conditioning specialist .
In addition to his goal of returning to skiing , Wallisch hopes to host regional skiing clinics and to become a model for the area ’ s youth . On November 10 , Wallisch and AHN will participate in a ski clinic at Seven Springs Mountain Resort that will feature season readiness training , injury prevention education , and more . Additional details will be announced this fall .
“ Coming from an area that isn ’ t known for producing competitive skiers , I ’ m extremely passionate about inspiring kids in the Pittsburgh region to pursue the sport ,” said Wallisch . “ I ’ m excited to establish roots and partnerships in this region , and explore ways in which AHN and I , together , can drive interest in skiing , as well as raise awareness of injury prevention and the value of individualized sports performance training .” ■
