BIOGRAPHY: 

Ben Ferguson is one of those prodigy riders who astounds the snowboarding scene with his skills and progression. He got his start at nine when Burton signed him to its Smalls Team. He's since graduated to the older pack of Burton riders, but he's no less astounding with his pipe and slopestyle capabilities. Farrow made his mark in 2010 with a halfpipe win at the final Rev Tour stop of the season, and he stepped it up again, in a different discipline, in 2011 with a 10th-place-finish in slopestyle at the Mammoth Grand Prix stop.

BEN SAYS:

This past year I had lots fun, good powder and sunny days.  I’m super stoked that I get to do what I do and couldn’t imagine it any other way.

FIRST TRACKS: 

Thanks in large part to his father's passion for riding, Ben was only 6 when he first got on a snowboard. A sticker on the front of his board showed him which side was supposed to face downhill, and after some intially trying moments, he was hooked.

OFF THE SNOW:

When Ben is off the slopes he enjoys hanging out with friends, skateboarding, going to the lake or the river, fishing and drawing.
