“I think that’s a big part of it for me, that the sport is always changing, there’s always something new to learn and there is a new way to do something, like something as simple as changing your tweak or changing your grab, it’s constantly fresh, I think that’s what has had me going for all these years. I’m inspired by other riders for sure, my oldest sister Meghan really inspired me growing up, she was kind of the first snowboarder that I looked up to and I really tried to emulate her as much as I could. But yeah, definitely a lot of the girls that I ride with and compete against has inspired me, the guys, free riders and even other athletes like Serena Williams, Muhammad Ali, I don’t know, I just get inspiration from a lot of different places.” – Spencer O’Brien, Pro Snowboarder, X Games Gold Medallist, Olympian.
