Whitelines Snowboarding

Sister of Taylor, this young American has the right name for a career in competitive snowboarding. She’s already grabbed a couple of shiny yellowish medals, including at the 2013 Burton European Open.

That same year she earned a last-minute invite to the X Games when Gretchen Blieler had to drop out. Rather than just making up the numbers, Arielle stormed her way to 3rd place, making the whole snowboard world sit up and take notice.

In 2014 she would have been the youngest competitor in the halfpipe (aged 17), but she injured herself just before the event started and was unable to compete. She’ll no doubt be back again in 2018 – most likely with even more medals already around her neck.
