freeskiing (Park)


Competitive & FULL-TIME FREESKI (Park) team

ABOUT THE TEAM

Our Comp Team is directed toward athletes who have spent time progressing in the terrain park and have a desire to take their park skiing to the next level.

We offer opportunities to compete regionally and nationally. Our Comp Team offers 1, 2, 3, or 5 day a week training options. Our 1 and 2 day options take place on Saturday and Sunday. Our 3 day program takes place on Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday, while our 5 day (full-time) program takes place on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sundays in the winter. Some of what athletes learn could include:


● Off-axis and inverted spins in both directions forward and backward
● Double flips/spins
● Spinning on and off of rail and box features
● Strategically planning competition runs


We provide a whole-athlete approach, including nutrition, sports psychology, and a supportive team atmosphere. Team transportation provided for select sessions/events.


DRYLAND: Fall dryland training provides conditioning and strength training. This part of our sport is equally as important as our on-snow part. Strength training and conditioning help prevent injuries and keep you at peak performance. Dryland also offers opportunities to play games and hang out with the team.


CAMPS: Trampoline sessions and water ramp camps are available, so that
skiers can safely progress through mastering new tricks. We use both Bridger Bowl and Big Sky to train during the season.

Freeskiing has options for U.S. Ski & Snowboard and USASA competitions.

NEW FOR 2025-26: Freeride/Freeski Hybrid

HYBRID OPTION FOR AGES 13+
Since the start of Big Mountain and Park skiing, there has always been a crossover between the two disciplines. In the sport of Freeride (Big Mountain) we have seen an increased emphasis on air awareness, aerial maneuvers, and knowing how to ride transitions in competition. On the flipside, we have also
seen professional Freeski (Park) skiers finish their time competing in the park and transition into Big Mountain competitions with huge success. This program allows athletes to develop their riding in both areas regardless of which competition path they see themselves heading down.

This program will train three days a week.
Option 1: Thurs & Sat at Bridger with Freeride and Sun at Big Sky with Freeski
Option 2: Thursdays and Saturdays with the Freeski at Big Sky and Sun at Bridger with Freeride

You will need: A pass to both ski areas, appropriate equipment (avalanche beacon, skis that
they can hit rails/boxes on), and a desire to be committed.

Athletes will need to be a strong skier on the mountain. You do not need to be an expert in
the terrain park but foundational skills such as hitting table top jumps, some experience with
rails and boxes, and spinning rotations such as 360s are preferred.

Will you need to compete to be a part of this hybrid program? Yes, athletes will be required to
compete in IFSA/Big Mountain competitions and/or USASA Slopestyle and Rail Jam
competitions.
