Chloe Kim has quickly become one of the best snowboarders in the world — and she’s only 16!
The teenager is racking up medal after medal at competitions around the world — and breaking records left and right. Last year, Chloe became the first female boarder to land back-to-back 1080s in the halfpipe. She’s also the first athlete to win three X Games gold medals before the age of 16. Her skills on the slopes have garnered her respect from top winter-sport athletes, like Shaun White, who calls her “really talented.” Oh, and she’s been nominated for two Espy Awards already!
