Freestyle Specialist Certification
In addition to passing certification exams, PSIA-AASI also offers Specialists Certificates. These Specialists Certificates are not limited to one discipline, so both skiers and snowboarders are encouraged to participate. The Freestyle Specialist (FS) focuses on incorporating freestyle maneuvers, both in and out of the terrain park, into your lessons. The content focuses on practicing and developing freestyle skills and concepts, as well as evaluates teaching and technical/MA skills and park skiing/riding ability.
The Freestyle Specialist process is a great way to improve your own park skills and add fun drills to your bag of tricks that not only teach freestyle moves, but also translate to more traditional skiing and riding. The FS process consists of an on-snow two-day clinic/exam. For more information and reference materials, visit the PSIA-E website.
