Freeride Competition

Based at Palisades. The Palisades Freeride Competition Team is for young skiers who want to attack the mountain, hone their skills, and perform at their highest level.
This program is available to skiers ages 9 to 20. The Sport Team is for kids that want to ski hard and hone their skills in order to ski at their highest level. This team is for all the kids who love to ski for the pure fun and challenge inherent to our favorite sport and the winter environment. Sport Team athletes have the opportunity to compete in our team’s Big Mountain Palisades Tahoe Cup events.

In addition to being a stand-alone, ski improvement and fun program, the Sport Team is designed to be a development program for athletes interested in moving onto the Palisades Tahoe Competition Team. The Palisades Tahoe Cup is great fun for all the participants but, further, it is a fantastic introduction to competitive big mountain. With a top-three finish in the Palisades Tahoe Cup, an athlete can earn consideration for the Comp Team.

As members of the Palisades Tahoe Big Mountain Ski Teams, all athletes can expect to gain knowledge in many areas including general alpine skiing skills, our legacy and history, equipment care and introduction to tuning, big mountain ski technique and tactics, technical fundamentals, aerial skills, activation and warmup, intro to nutrition, big mountain protocol and etiquette, and all-mountain safety.

Team fees DO NOT include a season pass. Purchase of the Ikon Pass is required.
