Crystal Freeride
Crystal Freeride ignites, challenges, and empowers freeskiers and snowboarders all over the Pacific Northwest with a range of programs that suit different styles, interests, and individual goals. From terrain parks to big-mountain, we develop athletes' skills, confidence, and positivity so they can enrich the sport and their community.
Freeride programs instill creativity, innovation, and self-expression through freeskiing and freeriding and build solid safety foundations both on and off the slopes. A passion for the sport and the Crystal Mountain community drives our vision, and we are committed to our athletes' excellence on and off the slopes.

Crystal Mountain's Freeride Competition Team is an exclusive invite-only or application-only competition program focused on national and regional IFSA competitions. Adult Freeride Sessions are 2-day lessons for adults focused on advancing a wide range of their skills.
