Sugarbush Rails In Firm Eastern Snow



The Sugarbush park looked quick and metallic under Vermont winter light, with firm snow pushing every landing back through the boots. Connor Starr, often credited as Con Starr in ski edits, moved through that East Coast setup in a way that fit the place: short approach, clean pop, rail pressure, and no wasted speed between features.

That Sugarbush frame is the best doorway into his public ski record. Starr is not documented through FIS standings, X Games medals or a World Cup slopestyle path. His visibility comes from East Coast web projects, crew videos and regional park culture, where repeated appearances in the right edits can say more than a thin contest sheet.



Springfield And The Saint Michael’s Jib Fest



The first useful identity marker comes from Saint Michael’s College in December 2021. The college’s Jib Fest coverage listed Connor Starr ’23 as a business major and MJD minor from Springfield, Vermont, and noted that he received one of the event’s main prizes for strong runs.

That result is small, but it gives the page a grounded start. It confirms a Vermont skier in a real on-snow setting before the broader edit trail becomes easier to follow. Jib Fest also fits his later profile: a skier-built environment, compact features, a session atmosphere, and rewards tied to how a rider uses rails and snow rather than to a national ranking system.



Promised Land Before The Sugarbush Episodes



Ski The East’s 2023 Promised Land and Lappin’ trailer placed Con Starr in a large East Coast cast that included Andy Parry, Will Wesson, Dylan Deschamps, Tom Galarneau, Chris Bechtold, Dan Hatheway, Mat Dufresne, Ed Joy and many others. The project moved through the Northeast with Ski The East’s long-running regional lens.

The listed locations included Stowe, Jay Peak, Loon, Killington, Mount Snow, Sugarbush, Smugglers’ Notch, Sunday River and the Chic-Chocs. Starr was not singled out as the lead athlete, so the accurate reading is ensemble presence. Still, appearing in that cast puts him inside a recognized East Coast freeski platform rather than an isolated local upload.



Lappin’ 4.3 With The LINE Crew In Town



Lappin’ 4.3: Sugarbush gave Starr a more precise episode credit. Ski The East described the segment as the LINE Skis crew visiting Sugarbush parks after the Tell a Friend Tour, with Andy Parry, Will Wesson, Simeon Glas, Reagan Wallis, Chris Bechtold, Andy Hoblitzelle, Bayard Baker, Con Starr and Jackson Doremus in the featured list.

That roster gives the clip useful weight. Parry and Wesson are long-standing East Coast and LINE figures, while Hoblitzelle, Bechtold and Doremus connect the episode to a more modern local jib scene. Starr appears in the middle of that bridge: not the old guard, not the headline pro, but part of the local energy that made the visit work.



Lappin’ 5.1 Returned To Sugarbush



In 2024, Lappin’ 5.1 returned to Sugarbush and again listed Con Starr, this time alongside Matt Stackhouse, Chris DeJohn, Jamison Coty, Raf Diaz, Chris Bechtold and Jackson Doremus. Ski The East called Sugarbush one of the most lappable parks in the East, emphasizing easy lift access and new features.

That second Sugarbush credit is valuable because it shows continuity. A one-time appearance can be a coincidence. A second episode in the same regional series suggests Starr remained part of the park scene that Ski The East wanted to document. For a developing street and park skier, that repeated inclusion is stronger than a single unsourced sponsor claim.



Weather Or Not Across The Hardcore Real Stuff



LINE Traveling Circus 17.1, Weather Or Not, gave Starr his widest official series marker. The episode sent the crew through the East, with Sugarbush, Gore Mountain, Whiteface and Snow Ridge appearing in the public description. LINE listed Connor Starr in the cast with Andy Parry, Will Wesson, Bennie Osnow, Mitchell Brower, Ian Compton, Kevin Merchant, Shane McFalls, Sawyer Sellingham, Charlie Dayton and Erik Olson.

Traveling Circus matters because it remains one of freeskiing’s most recognizable web series. Starr’s role should not be overstated as a full-profile episode, but the credit is meaningful. It places him inside a project built around East Coast weather, firm snow, awkward spots, humor, local connections and the long-running LINE tradition of treating imperfect conditions as part of the skiing.



How Starr Fits East Coast Jib Skiing



Starr’s public record points toward park and street-influenced jib skiing rather than jump-centered contest slopestyle. The traits to watch are rail entries, compact takeoffs, balance through slides, switch exits, quick resets and how he carries speed across short features. East Coast parks often leave little room for dead movement.

That terrain teaches a skier to be efficient. Firm landings, icy run-ins and smaller windows force commitment before a trick looks comfortable. In the Ski The East and LINE contexts, Starr appears among skiers who value line rhythm, creative rail use and the ability to make less-than-perfect conditions look natural on camera.



Take A Seat With Keep Standing



The 2025 Keep Standing project Take A Seat, covered by Prime Skiing under Arsenic Anywhere, gives Starr a current street-leaning archive marker. The official description listed Sawyer Sellingham, Matt Stackhouse, Andy Hoblitzelle, Max Gingras, Daniel Hatheway, Connor Starr, Will Deschenes, Sam Putnam, Chris Bechtold, Jackson Doremus and Mathieu Dufresne, with Sam Putnam editing.

That roster places Starr beside a strong East Coast and Canadian rail group. The project should be filed as crew video rather than a solo part, but it keeps his name active after the Ski The East and LINE credits. The strongest skipowd.tv tags are Springfield, Vermont, Sugarbush, Ski The East, Lappin’, Promised Land, LINE Traveling Circus, Keep Standing, Arsenic Anywhere, street skiing, park skiing and East Coast jib.
