U10 Freestyle

This exciting freestyle program is designed for skiers and snowboarders who are ready to explore terrain park features like jumps, rails, and boxes—riding with both style and confidence. Delivered in partnership with Park Labs, Chicopee’s U10 Freestyle Program introduces athletes to core park skills through the Park Labs Bunsen Program.

Whether your athlete is ready to hit a jump for the first time or landing their first 360, this program provides the foundation. Certified coaches use Park Labs' gamified skill development model to teach key park elements in fun, safe, and progressive sessions.
