BIOGRAPHY:
Joe Discoe has two tweak grab inverted tricks and some of the most dynamic turns in the business. A determined and passionate athlete, Discoe loves the adrenaline and speed of the sport, enough for him to be one of the most dedicated athletes out there. With four NorAm top-10 finishes he was on a steady rise to success after the 2009 season, the culmination of which was his third place at U.S. Championships. In 2010, Discoe continued his World Cup career in style with three top-15 finishes at the end of the season. Last season, he notched his career high World Cup result with a sixth-place finish along with four other top-15s. He was also back on the U.S. Championships podium, taking the title in the dual moguls.

JOE SAYS:
It was a good season. I attained my main goal, which was to qualify and compete at World Championships in Deer Valley. I made finals both days, but ended up 13th both days. The overall season was good first-year skiing the full World Cup tour. I skied very well, but was not as consistent as I would have liked to have been. I compete to win at every event or at least try to. My main goals this up coming season is to become more consistent so that I will be up towards/on the podium more often.

FIRST TRACKS:
With a talented older brother, Jon, who skis moguls, it was almost inevitable that Joe was to follow in his footsteps, especially when, Joe says, "I pretty much always wanted to do what my older brother Jon wanted to do." It has always been moguls for Joe, since the age of eight, when he started skiing, and soon after, joined the Telluride Ski Club after his brother.

OFF THE SNOW:
Joe basically enjoys anything that is active and outdoors: camping, mountain biking, wakeboarding, rockclimbing and weightlifting. He will be coaching a lot at mogul camps as well as at the Olympic park. As for hobbies he would like to get better at guitar and would like to finish some paintings this year.
