Coaching:

Goal is 3 coaches to lead groups of 7-10 riders to practice competition disciplines:

Slopestyle(Jumps + rails + parks), Banked Slalom, Half Pipe and/or free-ride

Riders are encouraged to take advantage of our talented coaches to advance existing skills, to get ready for competition and/or to make new friends

Snow conditions and competition dictate plans for each practice

Competitions:

Competitions are run and insured by OISA (Oregon Interscholastic Snowboard Association)

League competitions are held on 6 weekend days (typically) at Mt. Hood Meadows from January through March. State Championships occur late March

Transportation and accommodations for State Comp. will be determined later in season pending riders qualifying.

Complete OISA rules and 2022-2023 competition calendar are posted on website: www.oisa.org

Covid- 19 (What if’s)

If student bus transportation is not deemed safe, when the season begins, private/group carpool arrangements will be made.

If Mt Hood Meadows, OISA or the league have to cancel competition due to pandemic gathering restrictions, we will work with OISA on paid fees and refund options
