Su Yiming

Su Yiming is a Chinese Olympic snowboarding champion. At the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games, he won gold in Big Air and silver in Slopestyle, becoming China’s youngest Winter Olympic champion and the country’s first Olympic gold medallist in snowboarding. He was 17. At Milano Cortina 2026 he added another gold in Slopestyle and bronze in Big Air.

Beyond competition, Su opens up sport for young people through the Super Sports Foundation, which expands access to sports education and supports grassroots initiatives. He also serves as a Special Olympics East Asia Regional Ambassador, championing inclusivity in sport. His journey, from a historic breakthrough as a teenager to defending his title on the world’s biggest stage, carries the resilience needed to adapt, persevere and thrive in the face of ever-growing challenges, both on and beyond the slopes.

"The mountains gave me the opportunity to dream. Protecting nature means giving that same opportunity to future generations. Young people don’t need to wait to make a difference, every action we take today helps shape tomorrow. Different experiences make us stronger, but our shared aspirations can bring us together. Sport has taught me that determination can overcome many obstacles, but none of us succeeds alone." – Su Yiming
