Kelly Clark has a legitimate claim to be the greatest woman snowboarder of all time. Since winning her first Gold in the 2002 Winter Olympics, she has gone on to push the boundaries of the sport. Her amplitude and large bag of tricks have earned her more wins than any other male or female snowboarder in history, and in 2011 Clark continued to bridge the gap between men’s and women’s halfpipe, stomping the first 1080 in women’s competition history.
Celebrating her 60th career win in the 2013 season (more than any male or female snowboarder), a victory at the Olympic venue in Sochi, Russia, will further cement her already legendary place in snowboarding.
