A List of Chloe Kim’s Remarkable Triumphs, Becoming X-Games Champion to Two-Time Olympic Gold Medalist

Chloe Kim has had an exciting journey, with many accolades and wins to her name. However, this journey for the Olympian began at a very tender age. Kim has been snowboarding since she was 4-year-old. Perhaps it was not Chloe who chose snowboarding, but rather snowboarding found her. And at the age of 21, she is one of the most remarkable snowboarders the world has ever seen.

However, you might wonder how did it all start? Well, here’s how Chloe became the top athlete in her sport.

Although, apart from her great behavioral qualities, Chloe Kim’s incredible accomplishments are also a thing to talk about. While the world only knows her as the two-time Olympics gold medalist snowboarder, there’s certainly more to her story.

Well, winning the gold medal at the Olympics twice in a row is the dream for every athlete. However, if we minus that from Chloe’s account, there’s still a load of accomplishments left to talk about. Before making her Olympic debut at 17, she has already won three X Games gold medals. Yes, it seems like she learned snowboarding before she even started walking.
