Born and raised in beach-side Carlsbad in California, Brock Crouch was a surfer from a young age and continues to enter surf events, but he discovered his forte was on snow during a family vacation to the famed Mammoth Lakes ski towm. There was no turning back after that. “I never wanted to leave Mammoth,” he says.
By age six Brock entered his first slopestyle and halfpipe contests with the USA Snowboard Association. He was a natural at competition and quickly began winning contests, including the USASA Nationals. "When I was about eight, I realised, 'Whoa, I could be really good at this sport'," says Brock. “I started winning contests and I was really excited. I just kept progressing every day after that."
