Master the Mesa with Friends!
The Freeride Team is designed for intermediate skiers and snowboarders ages 10 and older who are ready to build their skills and explore the entire mountain. Participants should be able to independently put on and remove their equipment, ride the chairlift, link turns, control their speed, and stop quickly and confidently.
Throughout the program, athletes receive focused technical coaching while experiencing a wide variety of terrain. They’ll sharpen their turns on groomed runs, improve balance and control in variable conditions, navigate trees and glades, and develop the skills needed to approach terrain park features with safety and confidence top of mind.
With an emphasis on progression, mountain awareness, and individual style, the Freeride Team gives young athletes the tools to become stronger, more versatile riders. The supportive team environment encourages participants to challenge themselves, celebrate on another’s progress, and have plenty of fun along the way. Lessons start at 9:30 am and go until 3:30pm on Saturdays.

Whether they’re just learning to link turns or ready to explore new terrain, our instructors guide each child at their own pace with patience, encouragement, and a whole lot of high fives.
Each session focuses on fundamentals through games, exploration, and plenty of movement—because learning should be just as fun as riding the lift.
