U.S. Para Snowboard Team Announces 2025 Para Snowboard World Championships Team
U.S. Ski & Snowboard is excited to announce the 14 athletes representing the Toyota U.S. Para Snowboard Team at the 2025 FIS Para Snowboard World Championships in Big White, Canada, Mar. 4-10, 2025.
Five time world champion and nine time World Championship medalist Brenna Huckaby will headline the team alongside three time world champion Noah Elliott. Both athletes took home FIS Crystal Globes in February in Steamboat Springs. Elliott has five World Cup wins and eight podiums throughout the current 2024-25 season, winning every banked slalom event on the circuit. Paralympians Zach Miller and Mike Schultz bring years of experience to this team, including Paralympic medals, World Championship wins and ESPY Awards.
The experienced athletes on the team are joined by many new talents, including Kate Delson of Team Utah Snowboarding, who earned her first career win this season in Lenk, Switzerland. Colby Fields is also on the rise, with multiple top-10 finishes this season and being named the men’s UL 2025 national champion. Between the world champions and newcomers, the U.S. has had a standout season, taking home both the men’s and women’s Nations Cups.
“We are thrilled to announce the Toyota U.S. Para Snowboard Team World Championships team,” said Anouk Patty, U.S. Ski & Snowboard Chief of Sport. “We have the best Para snowboard team in the world, and they have worked extremely hard this season to maintain that title. I know they will continue to grow and show the world why they are the best on the World Championships stage.”
