Matty Kirchgasler, 15, of Prior Lake, has been competing in snowboarding competitions across the U.S and Europe for the last couple of years.
He has competed with and against some of the sport's biggest names, such as Shaun White and Minnesota native Steve Fisher.
Kirchgasler has decided to be tutored on his PLHS curriculum this semester while he lives away from home in Vermont, training at the Mount Snow Academy's Olympic development program.
Learn about his training, his favorite places to ride and his goals for the future in this week's "Faces in the Crowd."
