Alex Deibold is an Olympic medalist with over 100 World Cup starts under his belt. Alex's success began at the Stratton Mountain School, and then he made the US Team at 18. While he was on the team, he never totally fit in. The world of snowboarding had a “high school” style popularity system and the fact that he liked the gym and working hard earned him the dreaded jock label is the sea of cool guys. But regardless of the lack of funding, sponsors, or fanfare, Alex was able to make the dream happen.

Alex Deibold is a Professional Snowboarder, Husband, Father, Olympic Bronze Medalist, and avid golfer. His story is full of highs and lows, but one constant: Snowboarding. With his parents' support Alex started on a board at an early age. He found success quickly once he started competing. He attended the Stratton Mountain School to focus on snowboarding (and a little school) before being selected to the U.S. National Team. He has competed in the Olympics twice, winning the Bronze Medal in Snowboard Cross at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. Days leading up to the 2022 Winter Olympics, Alex suffered a crash landing him in a medically induced coma. Since then, he and his wife have welcomed a beautiful baby girl into their world. Alex and I talk about all things snowboarding, his road to the Olympics, the highs and lows of competition, mental health, service and transition, parenting, and a little golf.
