That's Kelly Clark holding her Bronze medal from the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Games. Kelly Clark was snowboarding long before it was an Olympic sport. Mt Snow is her home mountain, and her family still runs a restaurant near the mountain in the bottom floor of the home she grew up in. She amazed everyone in the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics by taking home the gold for the USA, blurring the line between what men were laying down and what women could and would do in half pipe competition. I was excited to be able to tell her that she has been an inspiration to me since the day I watched her win that Gold medal!
