Snowboarding Programs | Park City Ski & Snowboard

Competitive snowboarding is a global sport that challenges athletes to showcase speed, style, and progression across multiple disciplines.

Halfpipe – riders perform spins, flips, and tricks in a U-shaped pipe.
Slopestyle – a course of rails, jumps, and features where creativity and technical skill are key.
Big Air – a single massive jump where riders throw their biggest tricks.
Snowboardcross (Boardercross) – a head-to-head race over turns, rollers, and jumps.
Parallel Giant Slalom – a side-by-side race testing precision and speed.

At the highest level, snowboarders compete on the FIS World Cup circuit, in the X Games, and at the ultimate stage—the Winter Olympic Games—where the best athletes in the world push the limits of what’s possible on snow.

Lil' Rippers

Lil’ Rippers is our new weeknight snowboard program designed to get young riders ready for the FUNdamentals weekend program. With sessions at Woodward on Wednesday and Thursday nights, athletes will sharpen their basic riding skills and get an introduction to freestyle with small jumps, grabs, boxes, and rails—all in a fun, supportive environment.

Fundamentals

FUNdamentals is our core snowboard program for riders who can link turns on blue terrain and are ready to progress. With training at Park City Mountain and Woodward, athletes build all-mountain confidence and explore freestyle skills from first park laps to spins, grabs, and halfpipe.

National Team

National Team is a full-time snowboard program for riders with strong all-terrain skills who are ready to refine techniques in slopestyle, halfpipe, and boardercross. Designed for athletes pursuing alternative schooling, it provides maximum training time and serves as the pipeline to our Global Team.

Freeride Big Mountain

Push your riding beyond the park with PCSS’s Freeride Snowboard program. Athletes build skills in line choice, control, technique, and style while preparing for IFSA competition and safe backcountry travel. Training blends in-bounds freeride, park trick progression, and avalanche safety to create strong, versatile riders.

Global Team

Global Team is for advanced riders competing at Futures, Rev Tour, World Cup, and beyond—or those simply looking to push their skills. Athletes train and travel nationally and internationally, progressing on large and x-large terrain park features while pursuing competition, media goals, or just the love of riding.
