FreestyleMax Pty Ltd (ABN 507 397 81328) (ACN 116 931 643) is a privately owned Australian company, founded by Sydney snowboarder, Stephen Leong. Stephen created the FreestyleMax Snowboard Instructor after spending a season in Whistler at the Pro-Ride snowboard camp and doing the Canadian Association of Snowboard Instructors examination.  Now in its second year of operations, FreestyleMax has proudly supported many snowboarding events such as NSW Interschools, the Thredbo Freeride series, the Australian Junior Series, Mt Buller's Freestyle Friday program and kiwi production company, Reason Films (see more below).

Stephen was inspired to create the FreestyleMax Snowboard Instructor after being shown how to spin a 360 by his friend Juztin Tyler (Melbourne, Australia). The motivation to then set up the company FreestyleMax came from Stephen’s coach, Anthony Leffelaar. After further consultation with snowboard instructors; friends; and in particular professional snowboarder Mikkel Bang, Stephen learnt that many professionals use human shaped objects to visualise their tricks.

Professional snowboarders Mikkel Bang and Anthony Leffelaar are sponsored by FreestyleMax Pty Ltd and have been involved in the development of FreestyleMax The Snowboard Instructor.
