the USASA and its regions have enabled men and women, and boys and
girls, of all ages to participate in its organized events.
The
USASA National Championships has been called the World's Largest
Snowboard Competition. In 2009, it can now lay claim to the World's
Best Snowboard Competition. “USASA Open Class has always been the
stepping-stone for many of the sport's top professional competitors. In
order to step up the level of competition, the 2009 USASA Open Class
Halfpipe and Slopestyle Events will be 3 Star TTR (Ticket to Ride)
events. TTR is the premiere international competition series in the
world featuring hundreds of events across the globe culminating in a
final TTR World Champion.” explains Jon Casson, Vice President, of the
Executive Board of USASA.
“To partner with the TTR and the
World Snowboard Federation is just another way to show the world that
the USASA is one of the strongest organizations in snowboarding. We
have some really talented kids in our regions and this is a great
opportunity for them to compete with the best in the business,” said
Jason Toutolmin, USASA Executive Director.
The
USASA is a grassroots snowboard organization with over 5000 members who
compete in more than 500 events in 36 regional series across the US.
