![]() The list of accomplishments for this two-time Olympic gold medalist speaks for itself. In 2006 Wescott solidified his spot in snowboardcross history when he became the first man to win Olympic gold in his sport. He repeated the feat in 2010, laying claim to back-to-back Olympic gold medals. Wescott missed the 2014 Sochi Games due to a knee injury, but has his sights set on PyeongChang in 2018. Much more than just a snowboardcross racer, Wescott is an all-around rider (he was a member of the U.S. halfpipe team before switching his focus) who is on a constant quest for first descents on big mountains. Annual spring trips to Alaska's Chugach Mountains, adventures to the Himalayas and southern hemisphere as well as trips to the shores of Costa Rica keep life in perspective.
