About the Program:

The Freeskiing Park and Pipe program utilizes Stratton's award winning parks as the venue for this exciting new program.  Athletes will learn how to "get air" do "rail rides" and utilize the park features in a fun and safe environment.

Those ahletes who are in the Freeskiing Competition Team will also have the chance to compete in events throughout Southern Vermont: more information on events will be posted as it comes in. 

The 2007-20080 Season was coched by  Travis Heed and Adam Shaw.

For those new to the program, Adam has been coaching at Stratton for five years and comes to Stratton after a year in Mammoth Mountain where he served as a coach and a competitor.
