Silver Run Freeride

Build the Skills. Explore the Mountain.

Silver Run Freeride develops strong, confident skiers who want to take their skiing beyond the groomers — into challenging terrain, natural features, jumps, terrain parks, and eventually freeride competition.

Our Freeride pathway (Devo -> Freeride Prep -> Freeride Comp) is designed to let athletes progress when they're ready, with coaches helping families determine the right program based on skiing ability, development, and goals.

Find the Right Program for Your Skier

Devo

Ages 6–12 | Foundational Ski Development

Every young Silver Run skier begins in Devo.

Athletes build strong fundamental skiing skills while exploring the mountain, skiing gates, playing in the terrain park, and developing confidence across different terrain.

As their skills develop, coaches help determine whether they're ready to progress toward Freeride or Alpine Racing.

Choose Devo if:
Your child is new to Silver Run or is still developing the foundational skills needed for more advanced skiing.

Freeride Prep

Primarily Ages 11–15 | Coach Placement

Freeride Prep is the bridge between foundational skiing and competitive freeride.

Athletes build on their skiing foundation with focused development in Big Mountain and Park & Freestyle, including challenging terrain, line choice, natural features, jumps, landings, and terrain park skills.

Coaches evaluate athletes against skill-development benchmarks as they work toward Freeride Comp.

Choose Freeride Prep if:
Your skier has strong foundational skills, is excited about big mountain and freestyle skiing, and has been recommended for Freeride Prep by a Silver Run coach.

Not Sure Where Your Skier Belongs?

That's okay — you don't have to figure it out alone.

Silver Run's pathway is based on athlete development, not simply age. Coaches evaluate skiing ability, confidence, mountain awareness, maturity, and readiness to help place each athlete in the program where they'll be challenged while continuing to develop safely.
