He made his Olympic debut as a teenager at the 2022 Beijing Winter Games, finishing sixth in the men’s halfpipe, and has since become one of the most versatile riders in world snowboarding. In the 2022–23 season, Valentino became the first snowboarder to stand on the World Cup podium in all three park and pipe disciplines, big air, slopestyle and halfpipe, within a single season.
