Junior Riders is a development program that focuses on the basic foundations and skills of snowboarding. While the majority of on-snow time is spent freeriding, athletes will also be introduced to the disciplines of slalom, GS, halfpipe, slopestyle, and boardercross. Junior Riders are invited to compete at local USASA events, although competition is not a required part of the team. Juniors will also have the opportunity to spend time with advanced teams and athletes to help them transition to the next level of riding.
