25 Years of Laureus

At just 13, Estonia’s Kelly Sildaru won the Slopestyle gold medal, becoming the youngest ever gold medallist at the Winter X-Games. With her victory she overtook  Chloe Kim who was a gold medal winner at 14. She also became Estonia’s first ever Winter X-Games gold medal winner.Estonia’s highest hill is 300 metres above sea level which means she can only train at home ten days a year. It was the second big win of her young career, after the Slopestyle at the Dew Tour in December.
