Travis Rice’s run at Kings and Queens of Corbet’s 2019 might have been some of the finest snowboarding we’ve ever seen, but the real hero was no doubt Trevor Kennison, who chucked it off the lip aboard his sit-ski.

Maybe work on your action sports reporting a little more though, ESPN!

Parker ended up winning Best Female performance for that film. A Lake Tahoe native, her career dates back to her teens when she began competing in freeskiing before switching to
