Jamie Anderson defies gravity and stereotypes in her latest push to make an Olympic team.

Jamie is a 3-time Olympic snowboarder and 3-time Olympic medalist. She has two golds and a silver.

Jamie competed in her first X Games at the age of 13. At 35, she has the most the most X Games hardware of any woman in history and the second-most winter medals of any athlete.

She's a 5-time ESPY female action sports award winner.
