He is 20 years old and already one of the greatest snowboarders on the planet.</p><p><br></p><p>We spent two days together before the mics even came out — surfing, snowboarding and making music on the NSW south coast. The conversation that followed was one of my favourites.</p><p><br></p><p>Val grew up in Dalmeny, a tiny town on the south coast, and has gone on to compete at two Winter Olympics, set the world record for the highest halfpipe air, win two Overall Park and Pipe Crystal Globes and become the first snowboarder in history to podium in all three park and pipe disciplines in a single season.</p><p><br></p><p>We talk about his upbringing, what it takes to reach the top of a sport before you turn 20, bouncing back from a torn ACL and what is driving him as he chases even bigger goals.</p><p><br></p><p>Val is creative, grounded and genuinely one of the most exciting young athletes in the world right now.
