TOGROW
TOGETHER
AA Academy was founded by a group of riders, instructors and coaches with over 10 years of experience who believe that snowboarding done right is a school for life. It grew out of a shared idea between Ernesto Della Torre and Gianluigi Croce, who had already spent years guiding young riders from their first steps all the way to competitions in the best snowparks of northern Italy. In 2025 they joined forces on the snow of Passo del Tonale and AA Academy was born, with one goal: to help kids, teenagers and adults reach their snowboarding goals and enjoy it with ease, as a real sport.
As well as being a competitive club affiliated with FISI, we are first and foremost a community open to everyone, with the goal of promoting this sport and getting people to try it through passion, enthusiasm and expertise. In every activity and throughout your journey you'll be part of a group, with qualified coaches who are a team both on and off the snow!
