The snowboard world had to say goodbye to someone truly exceptional today.
Robert Mastnak was so much more than a familiar face on the Snowboard Alpine World Cup tour. As the father and coach of Olympic medalist Tim Mastnak, and the man behind the M-Team, he dedicated countless years to the sport and to supporting those around him.
Those who knew Robert will remember him for something that was always there — his smile. No matter the day, the conditions or the result, Robert always had a smile to share.
Thank you for everything you gave to our snowboard racing family, Robert. You will be deeply missed, but your smile and all the memories will stay with us. 🖤
