This team is designed for riders to build a strong foundation in the all-mountain and/or terrain park skills that are needed to begin to compete in Terrain Park (Slopestyle, Rail Jams & Big Air), Racing (Slalom, Giant Slalom, Boarder Cross) events. With coach recommendations, those interested may compete in local events and select USASA competitions.
The Development Team is also ideal for those who may not be interested in competing but still want the comradery and coaching that comes with being part of PASEF. The team will ride the entire mountain at Camelback Resort and the terrain that is available while freeriding provides excellent opportunities for specific skill progression.
