2025-26 U.S. Snowboard Team Announced

U.S. Ski & Snowboard officially announces the 56 athletes who have accepted their nomination for the 2025-26 Hydro Flask U.S. Snowboard Team in the halfpipe, slopestyle and snowboard cross disciplines. The athletes named to the team qualified based on predetermined selection criteria.
Hydro Flask U.S. Snowboard Team Halfpipe Team
The Hydro Flask U.S. Snowboard Team is led by two-time Olympic champion Chloe Kim, who has already pre-qualified for the 2026 Milano Cortina Olympic Winter Games, 2024-25 FIS Crystal Globe winner Maddie Mastro, who looks to build on her success last season, and Bea Kim, who returns to competition after an injury kept her off the snow last season.
On the men’s side, Olympic veterans Chase Josey and Lucas Foster bring leadership and steady top-10 World Cup results to the men’s roster and are joined by young talent including the likes of 18-year-old Alessandro Barbieri, who earned his first World Cup podium last season and Levko Fedorowycz, who makes his anticipated return from a season-ending injury, to round out a roster that blends experience with promising next-generation talent.
Hydro Flask U.S. Snowboard Team Slopestyle/Big Air Team
On the men’s side, the slopestyle and big air roster features a mix of Olympic veterans and rising stars for the 2025–26 season, led by 2018 Olympic gold medalist Red Gerard, who, like Kim, has already qualified for the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Olympic Games. Ollie Martin makes his pro roster debut after a breakout year that included two World Championships bronze medals and a FIS World Cup slopestyle win. Olympian Sean FitzSimons looks to build on the momentum after a third-place podium performance in last season’s Visa Big Air presented by Toyota.
For the women, two-time Olympic champion Jamie Anderson makes her highly anticipated return to competition after welcoming her second child and 2022 Olympic silver medalist Julia Marino looks to build on a strong comeback season.
Hydro Flask U.S. Snowboard Team Snowboard cross Team
The dynamic blend of experienced leadership and rising talent extends to the snowboard cross women’s roster. Both returning from maternity leave, Olympians Faye Thelen and Meghan Daniel are set to return to the start gate for the first time in two years, while 18-year-old Hannah Percy makes the jump straight to the pro team in her first national team roster appearance. Olympic champion Lindsey Jacobellis of the snowboard cross team will elect to stay on maternity leave this season after welcoming her first child in July.
In his fifth Olympic cycle, Olympic gold medalist Nick Baumgartner leads a hungry men’s roster. The 43-year-old is joined by 2023-24 FIS Rookie of the Year Nathan Pare, 2022 Olympian Jake Vedder and dual sport Olympian Cody Winters, who also competes in the alpine snowboard disciplines.
The 2025-26 FIS Snowboard World Cup calendar will kick off in Secret Garden, China, Nov. 27-29, with a round of big air in Beijing, China. Snowboard cross action takes off Dec. 12-14 on the storied Cervinia course and the halfpipe squad will join the FIS circuit on home soil Dec. 17-19 for the Toyota U.S. Grand Prix in Copper Mountain, Colorado, after forgoing the Secret Garden halfpipe season opener.
