Aspen Snowmass Open Highlights 2020-21 Rev Tour

U.S. Ski & Snowboard announced today that the U.S. Revolution Tour will once again support the freeski and snowboard development pipeline with back-to-back weeks of FIS NorAm competition. The 17th edition of the Rev Tour kicks off at Buttermilk in Aspen, Colo., and marks a new collaboration with the esteemed Aspen Snowmass Open.
“We want to thank the freeski and snowboard community for their support and patience as we navigate the challenging landscape for hosting competitions this season,” said U.S. Ski & Snowboard Events Manager Sarah Emery. “We owe a huge shout out to our amazing resort partners for their continued support and dedication to delivering safe and progressive competitions. We are excited about our new partnership with the Aspen Snowmass Open and look forward to adding snowboard back to this legacy event.”
The Rev Tour at the Aspen Snowmass Open is set to kick things off with halfpipe, slopestyle, and big air competitions Feb. 21-26. Competitions will take place on the X Games Aspen courses, providing a taste of what it takes to compete at the pinnacle of freeski and snowboard competition. 
The Rev Tour is focused on athletes 13-19 years of age and awards top athletes an invite to compete in the U.S. Grand Prix, Junior Worlds, and participate in Project Gold camps. Events are open to prequalified athletes, but additional opportunities also are available to earn a chance to compete. 
U.S. Ski & Snowboard’s continued partnership with USASA and The Futures Tour provides an avenue for athletes to qualify for the Rev Tour as a “last chance qualifier” into the current season, as well as solidify their prequalified spot for 2021-22 season. Athletes can also register an alternate, in which case FIS and World Snowboard Points List rankings will determine the athletes selected to complete the field. 
All events are contingent on local and state health department approvals based on existing and future COVID-19 rules and regulations. FIS, U.S. Ski & Snowboard, local organizing committees, and host venues are taking a unified approach consistent with guidance from federal, state, and local health authorities.
