Jeremy Forster, Director, US Snowboarding, will chair the task force, which will be composed of key members of the snowboard community including Uwe Beier, FIS Snowboard Race Director, Roberto Moresi, FIS Assistant Race Director, Reto Lamm, TTR President, and Maria McNulty, TTR Executive Board Member, as well as riders, national representatives, judges and coaches. The immediate focus for the group will be to work on the coordination of global calendars for competitive freestyle snowboarding.

We greatly appreciate the positive atmosphere of the cooperation and are focused on finding solutions to ensure the best promotion and opportunities for our sport."
