After years of contest success mixed with sidelining injuries, Matt Ladley had a stellar 2015-16 season, winning an X Games gold medal at Aspen in January and the U.S. Grand Prix in Park City shortly after. With huge amplitude, style and an effortless frontside 1260, Ladley is sure to be a threat at every contest he enters in years to come.

A product of the Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club, Ladley is now Denver-based, where he owns a house near downtown. He joined U.S. Snowboarding at just 15 years of age and has had much success with the team in the years since.    

FIRST TRACKS
Ladley first learned to snowboard thanks to Chris Saponaro, a ski instructor in Telluride, CO. He spent the next few years riding near Chicago at Raging Buffalo before moving to Steamboat when he was 11. He then started training with the Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club before jumping up to U.S. Snowboarding.

OFF THE SNOW
Come summertime, look for Ladley on his skateboard, climbing or backpacking. He's a huge Denver Bronco fan, even sporting a Denver Broncos jersey just before the 2016 Superbowl at X Games Aspen.
