Registration Info

Registration is not Required
Christiaan Anderson is a young African American snowboarder from the South whose talent, drive, and vision are carving a bold path in a sport where few look like him. A former member of Team NBS and now proudly representing Southern Snow Seekers – Atlanta, Christiaan is pushing boundaries and chasing excellence in Halfpipe, Slopestyle, Rail Jam, and Boardercross.

He started skiing at just 2 years old, but it was snowboarding that lit the fire. Since then, he’s landed podium finishes, nailed his first 360 in competition, and continues to train with unwavering focus. His goal? To represent Team USA on the Olympic stage—and to show other young athletes of color that they belong on the slopes too. His Goals: Short-Term: Land his first timed Tamedog in competition and rank #1 in the Southeastern Region (USASA). Long-Term: Compete in the Olympics and become a Maxillofacial Surgeon.

Why Your Support Matters: Snowboarding at this level is expensive. From coaching and gear to travel and competition fees, the costs add up fast. Christiaan’s parents are doing everything they can—stretching every dollar, making sacrifices, and showing up with love and belief. But they can’t do it alone. Your donation helps fund Christiaan’s training and competition journey. It’s not just about medals—it’s about representation, opportunity, and the power of showing up where you’re least expected and most needed.
