Freeski

We build top athletes and well-rounded individuals through courage, integrity, and teamwork—while inspiring a lifelong love of skiing. With world-class coaching at venues like Park City Mountain, the Utah Olympic Park, and Woodward, athletes of all levels can thrive, from recreational skiing to competing on the world stage.

What is Freeski?

Freeskiing began as a breakaway from traditional freestyle and alpine skiing disciplines like moguls, aerials, and racing. Today, it’s one of the most exciting areas of the sport, featuring Slopestyle, Halfpipe, Big Air, and Rail Jam.


PCSS offers a wide range of options to fit every schedule and ambition. With a strong focus on skill development, athletes gain the tools to ski safely and confidently—whether having fun in Park City’s world-class terrain parks or preparing for high-level competition.


Training takes place at premier venues including Park City Mountain, Utah Olympic Park, and Woodward Park City, giving athletes access to the best facilities in the world. From local competitions to the World Cup stage, whether your goal is a recreational program or a path to the U.S. National Team, PCSS provides the coaching and support to help athletes achieve their dreams.
