Shelby Smith is new to the Manning Ski Club coaching team for 2023 and we look forward to his updated bio to come! 

Hi, my name is Ryan Shea. I started skiing as soon as I could chase my dad and older brother down the mountain. I have grown up skiing on a number of different mountains across southern B.C. It is my goal to support the children of the Manning Park Ski club as they learn the skills and joys of downhill skiing. My hope is that my passion and love for skiing will instill in them the same gift that I have received in continually learning to become a better skier. At the end of each day, I intend to provide my team with more confidence in their abilities, skill progression, and a love for the sport of skiing. 

I am excited to be a coach this season for Manning Ski Club! Skiing is my passion and in 2018, I was an athlete at the BC Winter Games as well as the Whistler cup. I love to hike, swim, bike, and most of all, ski. I hope to pass on my passion for skiing to a new generation. My three main goals this season are to make sure everyone goes home with a positive experience, everyone improves their overall skiing ability, technique and confidence, and finally to have fun and simply enjoy yourself! I look forward to seeing everyone on the hill!
