Thank U Snowboarding - S2 - Ep14 - Jenny Jones

I normally start this section off with, you may not have heard of such and such, but not this time. I"m pretty certain you will have heard of Jenny Jones, and for good reason.Winning bronze at the Sochi Olympics is just part of her story, sadly, she wasn't the inspiration for the movie chalet girl and indeed, has never watched it, but she did start her career older than Mia Brookes is now, and went from seasonaire in Tignes to returning to win X Games gold there many years later (via two wins in the US) Jenny's presence in the sport is cemented by not only picking up medals, but by the legacy of people that saw her on TV and decided to learn to snowboard that day, and the fact that snowboarding in the UK 'grew up' that day. Thats quite something...This is a real dive into Jennys story, and a real pleasure, after being friends for years, to actually sit down and get to know her, I hope you enjoy this one. xIf you want any info about the Brits, you can find it here: https://britssnow.com/As always, we are kindly looked after by The Snowboard Asyum https://www.snowboard-asylum.com/Lizzie and Dan from Burton https://www.burton.com/gb/en/home?regionSelector=trueTom from Transform Gloves https://transformgloves.com/en-gbChris from Canoe Inc for Oakley Goggles https://www.oakley.com/en-gbAnd a shout out to Tom from Volcom https://highdaysltd.com/ Hosted on Acast.
