Alaskan native Ryan Stassel has had a board strapped to his feet since kindergarten. The talented slopestyle and big air rider worked his way up through USASA and the Revolution Tour, soon finding success at the U.S. Grand Prix and eventually earning himself a spot on the U.S. Olympic slopestyle team in 2014. 2014 was Stassel’s breakout year. He earned his first major win at the U.S. Grand Prix at Mammoth Mountain and backed it up two days later with a third place, effectively securing his spot on the first U.S. Olympic slopestyle snowboarding team. In Sochi, Stassel finished 14th in the high-octane slopestyle debut. In the 2015 season, Stassel took home the World Championship title at the FIS World Championships in Kreischberg, Austria.
