Hagan Kearney is a motorcyle loving, metal head skateboarder with a knack for the snowboardcross course. He fell in love with snowboarding at nine years old when a family vacation turned into a family relocation to Telluride, CO. New to the World Cup circuit in 2012, Kearney proved his mettle with impressive Nor-Am finishes, including a whopping eight top-ten finishes in 2012. His World Cup fifth-place finish at Valmalenco, Italy was proof that this versatile athlete has lots of podiums to clean up in the years to come. In 2013 Kearney competed in seven World Cup races and took the SBX team win at the World Cup opener in Montafon, Austria. During his second season on the SBX team, Kearney continued to impress with consistent points on the World Cup tour and a ninth-place finish at the 2014 X Games. He's a now a three-time X Games athlete and in 2016 he logged a couple of top-ten World Cup finishes, as well as a win at the Nor-Am Cup at Ski Cooper in February. FIRST TRACKS OFF THE SNOW |
