Free Ride Skiing is skiing in the park doing rails and aerial tricks while also skiing all mountain terrain.


For the innovative skier seeking opportunities to take on the demands of "new school" and terrain parks. Team Freeride is an innovative program for the athletic skier looking to improve their skills in a variety of arenas. This a 6 day a week competitive program designed for the all around skier specializing in terrain park and freestyle skiing. The majority of training takes place in the terrain parks with free skiing and occasional mogul skiing sessions. Our coaching philosophy with this team is that to excel in terrain parks, the skiers must be strong all-mountain skiers. Team Freeride balances fundamental freestyle / freeride training with directed free skiing all over Squaw Valley USA. Athletes will then progress to new school aerials in half-pipe, terrain parks, aerial sites. Helmets are required during all aerial training sessions and mouth guards strongly encouraged.
