Rosie Mancari is an Alaskan native that has been tearing up the Nor-Am snowboardcross circuit for years. She joins U.S. Snowboarding in 2016, looking to continue her success at the World Cup level.

Mancari grew up in Anchorage, AK, but graduated high school early to move to Steamboat Springs, CO to train with the Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club. The move paid off--she was soon hitting podiums; her first Nor-Am win came at Sun Valley, ID in 2013. In 2016 she took home three wins, earning her a spot on the U.S. snowboardcross development team. 

FIRST TRACKS
Mancari grew up on the slopes of Alyeska Resort, just outside the city of Anchorage. After chasing her older siblings for years, by the age of 14 she realized that she had a "need for speed" and began entering local races.  

OFF THE SNOW
In her down time Mancari likes to hike, wake surf and stay fit while exploring her mountain home.
