Originally from Newport Beach, CA, Chandler Hunt's parents knew that if he was going to have a shot at making a career of snowboarding, he had to live a bit closer to snow. So they packed it up and moved to Park City, UT. After an impressive Revolution Tour season, he made the U.S. Snowboarding Rookie Team in the spring of 2014, proving the move paid off. In 2015, Hunt continued to thrive on the Revolution Tour, earning seven top-10 finishes including a third-place podium spot at the tour finals in Mammoth Mountain, CA and a sixth-place finish at the FIS Junior World Championships in Yabuli, CHN. The 2016 season was a strong one for Hunt, who made his first World Cup start, finishing an impressive sixth at the U.S. Grand Prix/FIS World Cup at Mammoth Mountain. He won the Winter Park stop of the Revolution Tour and scored a podium finish in third place at the Junior World Championships in Italy. Chandler Hunt Full Part from Suspect Squad on Vimeo. |
