Shred Queens & Kings – Challenge #6 is here!

Halfway through the journey. Time to raise your level.

The Shred Queens & Kings series returns with Challenge #6, marking the halfway point of the season. Six challenges behind us, six still ahead — and the global Shred community continues to grow stronger with every submission, every trick, and every landed progression.

Each challenge pushes riders toward better balance, sharper control and personal style. Now, as we cross the mid-season line, it’s time to take things into the air.

For Challenge #6, the focus is on the Frontside Grab: a fundamental freestyle trick that blends timing, confidence and expression. Whether you go for a smooth method-style hold, a compact air or a creative variation, this challenge is about clean execution and personal flair.

As always, this series is open to all ages, all genders and all riding levels. Ride on snow, train indoors, set up in your backyard or get creative wherever you can ride safely. All you need is your snowboard — and your smile.

First Winners Confirmed

We’re excited to share that the winners from Challenge #1 to Challenge #4 have officially been selected.

Across the opening stages of the season, riders from around the world delivered impressive clips, steady progression, and pure stoke. From first rides to confident landings, the impact of the Shred Queens & Kings project has already been felt across the global community.

Official announcements with full winner details — including names, categories and how the prizes were awarded — will be published very soon. Stay tuned as we celebrate the first riders to claim victory this season.
