Torino Watch


Lindsey is one of the bright, new medal prospects for the 2006 U.S. Olympic Team. She has a chance to compete in Torino in halfpipe and her specialty, snowboard cross (SBX), which will be a first-time Olympic event in 2006. The 2005 World Champion in SBX, Lindsey is also an Olympic medal favorite in the halfpipe. During the 2003-2004 season, she competed in both disciplines, winning every snowboard cross competition she entered and capturing back-to-back World Cup wins in both disciplines.

Personal


Lindsey Jacobellis stands out with her long, curly, golden locks of hair, her easy-going personality and all those tricks she performs on her snowboard. She’s a rising young star in the U.S. with a thousand-watt smile and is the only U.S. Olympic Team hopeful successfully competing in two snowboarding disciplines. She carries herself with confidence and is one of the toughest women in the sport today, with her demanding schedule riding both the halfpipe and snowboard cross.


While her noticeable natural wavy hair was cut back in 2002 to make a wig for “Locks of Love,” an organization helping chemotherapy patients who are losing hair, Lindsey is as radiant as ever, with a vibrant personality and a style off the slopes that helps her stand out in the crowd. Between seasons in 2004, Lindsey modeled for Seventeen and cross-trained with her brother, Ben. For fun, the siblings spend each summer creating trails for their all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and wakeboarding on the local lake.


She entered the sport in the halfpipe at age 10 in 1996 at the urging of her brother. She began racing SBX at the suggestion of a friend who said her speed and agility made her a natural to be successful in the discipline. Determined to project a positive image for snowboarding athletes, she is well-spoken and amazingly mature for her age, choosing to swap years of high school memories to travel the world for her sport. Today she is on a deferment from the University of Vermont until she can fulfill her dreams of competing in the Olympic Winter Games as a member of the U.S. Olympic Team.
