2024-25 Hydro Flask U.S. Snowboard Team Announced

SEP. 16, 2024 - PARK CITY, UTAH - U.S. Ski & Snowboard is proud to announce the roster of 56 athletes who have accepted their nomination to the 2024-25 Hydro Flask U.S. Snowboard Team.

The slopestyle, halfpipe, and snowboard cross rosters include experienced veterans and up-and-coming riders. Each team features a two-time Olympic medalist: Chloe Kim in halfpipe, Jamie Anderson in slopestyle, and Lindsey Jacobellis in snowboard cross.

The slopestyle pro team is highlighted by Red Gerard, the 2018 Olympic gold medalist, and two-time Olympian Chris Corning, who both lead a young crew of riders hungry to prove themselves on the World Cup circuit. The slopestyle rookie squad features two newcomers: 2024 Youth Olympic Games big air silver medalist Ollie Martin and 2024 slopestyle national champion Lily Dhawornvej. 

Sidelined by an injury midway through the 2023-24 season after winning X Games gold, two-time Olympic gold medalist Chloe Kim is set to return to the halfpipe World Cup circuit. Joining her is two-time Olympian Maddie Mastro. She looks to carry the momentum from her highly successful 2023-24 campaign into the upcoming season, having finished second overall in the women's halfpipe World Cup rankings. Team veteran and 2023-24 halfpipe assistant coach Maddy Schaffrick is back on the roster after deciding to return to competition earlier this spring. 2024 Youth Olympic Games silver medalist Alessandro Barbieri and teammate Levko Fedorowycz jumped from rookie to pro while newcomers Zoe Guerrero and Orian Casas join the likes of a talented halfpipe rookie roster.

Team mainstays and reigning Olympic snowboard cross mixed team gold medalists Lindsey Jacobellis and Nick Baumgartner lead a young, exciting group of snowboard cross riders. The 2024 FIS snowboard cross rookie of the year Nathan Pare and teammate Theodore Mclemore move from rookie to pro, while Madeline Lochte Bono and Virginia Boyd earn a spot on the rookie squad.

“This year’s squad features a deep talent pool with a mix of veteran Olympic champions paired with young talent,” said Snowboard Sport Director Rick Bower. “It’s an exciting dynamic to see legends like Chloe Kim, Red Gerard and Nick Baumgartner mentor up-and-coming shredders like Rebecca Flynn, Cody Winters and Bea Kim. If the slopestyle World Cup in Cardrona is any indication of what’s to come, it’s going to be an exciting season!

With the slopestyle season already underway after the 2024-25 August opener in Cardrona, New Zealand, the squad looks to Switzerland for the first big air event of the season on Oct. 19, 2024, in Chur. The halfpipe season debuts Dec. 4-7, 2024, in Beijing, China, and snowboard cross will have a doubleheader Dec. 13-15, 2024, in Cervinia, Italy, to kick off their 2024-25 campaign.
