Welcome to Pray For Snow, a visual celebration of dedication and community captured through the lens of Liberty University's Ski and Snowboard Team. This project takes you behind the scenes of the team's fall practice season at Liberty Mountain Snowflex Center, a unique training facility that allows our athletes to practice year-round on one of the only dry slopes in the United States.

For each of us on the team, Snowflex is more than just a place to ride, it’s a symbol of the perseverance and hard work that defines us. This opportunity to ride in the off-season translates into the success we see every winter. The team has won multiple USCSA National Championships and earned the title Best Team of the Year at Liberty University's Club Sports ceremony in 2024.

Each clip in this collection showcases the raw talent, grit, and style of the riders who make up Liberty’s Ski and Snowboard Team. Under the guidance of coaches Tyler and Sam Sherbine, the team continues to push themselves on the slopes, and this project aims to showcase their journey.

I hope you enjoy this glimpse into the Liberty Ski and Snowboard Team, where the passion for the sport meets our drive to compete at the highest level. As we say in the winter: “Pray for snow”—but until it comes, we’ll keep riding.
