2026 NST Snow | RnD | Natural Selection Tour RND 2026 | Whitewater, BC Fifteen women from around the world came together at Whitewater Mountain Resort for RnD 2026—pushing the limits of backcountry freestyle snowboarding through filming, competition, and full-send commitment. Founded by Robin Van Gyn, RnD’s mission is simple: get more women into the mountains, give them the space to be seen, build their presence, and showcase their backcountry riding—while creating a pathway to the Natural Selection Tour. The format blends three filming days with one contest day, combining each rider’s best line and strongest clip. Creativity, adaptability, and execution are everything. In 2026, the stakes leveled up: Top 2 riders qualified for the Natural Selection Tour Finals in Revelstoke, BC, with one alternate. Results: 1st – Amalia “Billy” Pelchat ($10,000 + NST Qualified) 2nd – Yuka Fujimori ($6,000 + NST Qualified) 3rd – Katie Kennedy ($4,000 + NST Alternate) More than a contest, RnD is a progression platform—where riders film real backcountry lines, work with production crews, and leave with the footage, photos, and momentum to push their careers forward. As RnD continues to grow, it has firmly established itself as a critical progression platform in women’s backcountry freestyle snowboarding—proving that when opportunity, mentorship, and terrain align, talent that has long existed finally gets the stage it deserves. Riders include: Estelle Pensiero, Egan Wint, Katie Kennedy, Ellery Manning, Amelia “Billy” Pelchat, Enni Rukajärvi, Marissa Krawczak, Celia Petrig, Stefi Luxton, Ellie Weiler, Yuka Fujimori, Eva van Vugt, Maria Hidalgo, Audrey Doan, and Juliette Pelchat. Supported by Arc'teryx, YETI, Whitewater Mountain Resort, Jones, Sun Bum, Burton, Tribute Boardshop, The Adventure Hotel, Nelson Kootenay Lake Tourism, and the Natural Selection Tour. ----- SUBSCRIBE for new content: / @naturalselectiontour Facebook 👉 / @naturalselectiontour Instagram 👉 / @naturalselection TikTok 👉 / @naturalselectiontour Be in the know.

2026 NST Snow | Bridging the Gap with Arc'teryx | Natural Selection Tour Three years ago, RND was created by Robin Van Gyn to close the opportunity gap for women in backcountry snowboarding. A contest built by women, for women. This season, two RND riders, Billy Pelchat and Yuka Fujimori, stepped onto the biggest stage at NST Snow in Revelstoke. Billy earned 1st at RND, then stood on the podium again with 3rd place at Revelstoke. From qualifier to world stage. With the support of Arc'teryx and a shared vision between RND and Natural Selection Tour, the pathway for women in snowboarding is getting stronger. This is Bridging the Gap with RND and Arc'teryx. ----- SUBSCRIBE for new content: / @naturalselectiontour Facebook 👉 / @naturalselectiontour Instagram 👉 / @naturalselection TikTok 👉 / @naturalselectiontour Be in the know.
