SNÖBAHN, a premier action sports center with two locations in Colorado, has announced an exciting new partnership with Unrivaled Sports, a leader in youth and recreational sports experiences. This strategic collaboration aims to propel SNÖBAHN’s innovative concept onto the national stage, offering an unparalleled opportunity for young athletes to engage with action sports year-round.
Revolutionizing Action Sports
The partnership comes with the support of three-time Olympic gold medalist Shaun White, who is a minority investor through Ares Management. White expressed his enthusiasm for the venture, stating, “SNÖBAHN is revolutionizing how young athletes engage with action sports year-round. This investment isn’t just about adding facilities; it’s about breaking down barriers to these sports, wherever you are located. It’s about cultivating passion and skill in a whole new generation of athletes.”
The Vision for Expansion
Unrivaled Sports co-founders Josh Harris and David Blitzer, along with The Chernin Group (TCG), join White in this venture. The collaboration is set to expand SNÖBAHN into new markets, making action and snow sports more accessible to a broader audience. Since its founding in 2016, SNÖBAHN has been at the forefront of providing efficient, effective, and affordable ways to learn and advance skills in skiing, snowboarding, skateboarding, and BMX.
Shaun White’s New Initiatives
In addition to this partnership, Shaun White has recently launched The Snow League, a global snowsports league set to debut next year. Although The Snow League is not part of the Unrivaled Sports portfolio, it shares common investors, including Ares and Blitzer’s Bolt Ventures, highlighting the interconnected vision of promoting action sports globally.
A New Era for SNÖBAHN
A spokesperson for SNÖBAHN emphasized the transformative potential of this partnership, stating, “Unrivaled Sports is committed to expanding SNÖBAHN into new markets, making action and snow sports more accessible to a wider audience in the years ahead.”
With this collaboration, SNÖBAHN is poised to lead a new era in action sports, providing state-of-the-art facilities and training to nurture the next generation of athletes. The future looks bright for SNÖBAHN as they take this significant step towards nationwide expansion.
