At the age of 17, Tom Schaar has already appeared in eight X Games, won five medals, and is on track to become one of the most accomplished and winning X Games skaters of all time. He started off competing in moguls, which are a series of jumps you must clear in order to score points. He has three gold medals from this sport. Next, he moved onto skateboard big air, where you use ramps and other objects in your path to jump as high as possible. There's also a half-pipe component involved. Tom has two more gold medals from this sport. Finally, he concluded his first X Games with a silver medal in snowboard big air. This is the most recent sport at the X Games; therefore, Tom is not yet finished competing at them. He has another chance at winning more medals this year at the 2015 X Games in San Jose, California. In total, Tom has won five gold medals and one silver medal so far. This means that he has won more than 50% of all available gold medals at the X Games and is currently ranked third all time behind only Gus Kenworthy and Iouri Podladtchikov. It's safe to say that Tom Schaar is one of the best snowboarders in history.
