The Tony Hawk Of Skiing. That’s what people call Natalie Lang-Ree back in her hometown. Actually, we made that up and we’re not sure if it’s true at all, but this adorable addition to our Eclipse family hails from a California town just outside of Tahoe called Truckee, where her parents met volunteering for an adaptive ski school. Don’t be fooled by Natalie’s ski pedigree though, because this freshie was born to play ultimate (which she has decided is “definitely a real sport”). A shining star at wall ball and skip ball in elementary school, Natalie is no stranger to the fame that accompanies excelling at competitive sports. Other extreme sports that decorate Natalie’s past include stealing “sweet creamy milk and sometimes cereal” from the dining hall and also Dancing While Shy. One notable accomplishment missing from her resume, however, is visiting Eclipe’s homeworld, The Moon. When asked why, Natalie explained that she hasn’t been to the moon because she is afraid of space travel, and also because being anti-gravity would make her nauseous and she has a “phobia of throw up so not worth the risk”. Natalie may be wise in matters of space-travel-boundary-setting, but she has yet to realize the existential threat that Geese pose to society. Eclipse returners will wait with heavy hearts for the day Natalie has her first spring term run in with the Goodhue Geese and realizes they aren’t so “cute from a distance”. This and other growth milestones will surely make Natalie’s career on Eclipse a thrilling and heartwarming saga. By the time her senior year rolls around, Natalie hopes to be “A good friend, dancer, hot chocolate lover, eclipse returner, and actually good at frisbee”. You’re well on your way, kid.
