Mason Agurrie:
Pipe master, yet an all around shred to the
bone, Mason reps Mammoth but has roots in
Minnesota. Last season he spent time traversing
the globe, highlighted by a most excellent
pow-packed Japanese journey where he bagged
some a-roll for Burton’s latest vid,
“It’s Always Snowing Somewhere.”
Mason was also able to pull off a win at the
New Zealand Open, 2nd at Park City’s
World Superpipes, and another 2nd at the US
Open halfpipe. In the off-season Mason finds
piece of mind on the greens, and on the R&D
tip is always cooking up crack smoke for his
Ronin outerwear and Custom shred sled

Molly Agurrie:
Molly Aguirre is one of snowboarding’s
biggest girly-girls, but that doesn’t
seem to affect her riding. She trains with
her brother and Burton teammate, Mason, and
has developed her halfpipe skills to the same
standards held by the guys. Though she is
known as predominantly a halfpipe rider, Molly
is an accomplished slopestyle rider as well.
Her rail skills are apparent with wins at
events like the Vail Session.
Molly grew up in Minnesota, but has since
relocated with her family to Mammoth, CA,
where she trains as a member of the US Team.
When she’s not on the snow, Molly likes
to wear mini skirts and go to the mall.
Birthdate: 9/10/1984
Hometown: Duluth Minnesota LAT 46N / LONG

Tyler
Anderson:
There has been thousands of athletes that
have graduated through the ranks of G Team,
but none have rode so smoothly through the
transition on to a professional snowboard
ranking as Tyler Anderson. His charismatic
attitude and bright open outlook of the future
put his mind in a constant state of progression
and creativity. At the young age of 19 Tyler
still have many years to prefect his style
and expressive snowboarding form. If you don’t
know who Tyler is, well, you will very soon.
My name is Tyler Anderson and I’m 19
years old from Chanhassen, Minnesota. I’m
currently a student at Colorado Mountain College
in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. I have been
snowboarding for a solid 8 years and loving
every minute of it. I am looking forward to
a wonderful year ahead, spending time and
getting to know everyone that’s part
of the Pacsun team.

Mikeala
Casey:
Mikeala has played many roles as a G Team
athlete; from grom, to ripper, to champion,
to mentor, and graduate. If you need inspiration
and motivation to keep snowboard, sit down
with Mikeala, sip a cup of hot chocolate,
and absorb every bit of wisdom she passes
to you as if your brain was a sponge. If Mikeala
wasn’t perusing a career as a professional
snowboarder, she’d already be the President
of the United States of America.
