The Qualifier spherical of The 2025 Silver Belt comp at Sugar Bowl Resort was a huck fest for the ages. On scene with cameras in hand, the FREESKIER crew watched as over 100 skiers and boarders took to the world to showcase their finest line and impress their friends.

We noticed extra doubles than we will depend, cork 7s, hand drags, straight traces and extra. It was merely a murals. Sugar Bowl noticed an unbelievable storm to start out the week, so the opponents have been handled to idyllic gentle circumstances. Whereas each rider put down terrific runs, we have been totally impressed with the younger weapons on the right track.

14-year-old Jasper Rodgers and Bodie Hilleke each took to the skies and stomped dub backflips off one of many bigger options, Pyramid Rock. Tahoe native Abby Winterberger put down a cork 7 as the group lit up. And we’d be remiss with out mentioning Oskar Roner, who had a hell of a line and almost put a dub flat to his ft. We may go on, however it’s protected to say the way forward for freeride is in good arms.

A number of of our favourite highlights included Reid Litwiller taking a singular entrance from the far skier’s proper, Rob Ruud and Keva Kelly lacing the cork 7’s of the millennium, and Mac Winterberger placing down a dub flat spin on the final soar of the course.

Sadly, there’s solely room for therefore many within the finals. The athletes scored each other and, after 16 heats of athletes, our finals roster was locked and loaded.
