 A four-time Olympian and three-time Olympic medalist – gold in 2002 and bronze in both 2010 and 2014 (and fourth in 2006) – Kelly Clark is a trailblazer and dominant force in halfpipe snowboarding. She continually pushes the innovation and amplitude of her riding to new heights, making history and setting new records in her wake. In 2011 Kelly became the first woman to land a 1080 in competition and is still one of a only a handful of women to successfully land the trick. With over 70 career wins to her name Clark is the most dominate competitive snowboarder in history, male or female. While attending the Mount Snow Academy, Kelly's breakout year came in 2001; the then-16-year-old won the overall Grand Prix title that year. In 2002 she had a benchmark season, earning X Games gold, Olympic gold the U.S. Open and the overall Grand Prix title. A member of U.S. Snowboarding (on and off) for 16 years, Clark has laid claim to three Olympic medals, seven X Games gold medals and 14 overall (making her the most-medaled woman in X Games history), five World Snowboard Tour titles, six Grand Prix titles and eight U.S. Open titles.
