Anna Ribalta Matas

Anna was another skier who was savagely forced by her family to start skiing at 3 years old, after seeing her cousin snowboarding and having too much fun she finally managed to convince her parents that snowboarding was her passion and at the age of 6 she first stood sideways to slide on snow. Her local mountain range is the Pyrenees where she spent many years improving her boarding and finally studying to become a snowboard instructor. Never afraid of the cold Anna hasn’t had a summer for 13 years having moved north and south of the equator to follow the endless winter.

Anna loves Freeride snowboarding but her passion is the mountain and striding out into the wilderness on her Splitboard to ride fresh and untouched powder. Anna has just returned from a season in Argentina so has pretty much just stepped off the snow in South America, her all-time favourite place to snowboard is the Andes in Patagonia.
