Jenny's run consisted of a frontside 360 to backside 360, a frontside 540, switch frontside 540, and a clean frontside 720 over the final kicker.

“Jenny is a perfect example of how anyone from anywhere can snowboard. ... She’s won the X-Games three times now and has done it with a smile on her face through it all. She’s huge inspiration to a lot of girls in snowboarding and beyond.” said Salomon Snowboards Team Manager Javier Fernandez.

Jones won the Gold at the Winter X Games in Aspen earlier this season against a stacked roster of the best female snowboarders.

She also made history a year prior with her first X Games Gold, establishing herself as the first British athlete to take home an X Games gold medal.
