Meet The Champions
Chris Waddell
Chris Waddell is the winningest male monoskier in history. He is also one of only a handful of athletes to win World Championships in both winter and summer sports. As a skier and a wheelchair racer, he always set his goals higher than just the top step of the podium. When he broke his back as a collegiate ski racer and then started to ski in a monoski, he realized that his performances gave a voice and an image to the disabled community, a largely forgotten segment of the population. In September of 2009 he became the first Paraplegic to summit Mt. Kilimanjaro. With the summit of the tallest mountain in Africa and his One Revolution Foundation, he’s attempting to affect a social change in how we see ourselves and other people. Through an average person achieving an extraordinary feat, he hopes that we can all access our genius.

She is known for her extensive success in the mogul and dual mogul events, as well as being the first woman to perform the Cork 720 in the Olympic Games. Jillian brings a unique sense of joy and excitement to the mountains with her effervescent personality, positive nature and love for people.
