Tess Ledeux

Tess Ledeux, born on November twenty-third, two thousand one, is a prominent French freestyle skier known for her remarkable achievements on the international stage. She first gained recognition at the FIS Freestyle Ski and Snowboarding World Championships in 2017, held in Sierra Nevada, Spain, where she clinched a gold medal in slopestyle, marking the beginning of her illustrious career.

Her prowess continued to shine at the 2019 World Championships, where she added another medal to her collection. Ledeux has also made her mark at the Winter X Games, securing four gold medals—three in big air and one in slopestyle. Notably, at the 2022 X Games, she became the first woman to successfully land a double cork one thousand six hundred twenty in competition, winning gold in both slopestyle and big air.

In addition to her X Games success, Ledeux represented France at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Peking, China, where she earned a silver medal in the women's big air event, further solidifying her status as a leading figure in freestyle skiing.

However, her journey faced a significant challenge in March twenty twenty-five when she suffered a concussion during a World Cup competition. This injury prevented her from fully recovering, leading to her absence from the entire twenty twenty-five to twenty-six season, including the Winter Olympics.
