Kaishu Hirano
5’5” on land. 24’4” out of the half pipe
In the 2022 Olympics, Kaishu Hirano blasted 24’4” feet out of the half pipe. To put things into perspective, that’s higher than a full-grown giraffe. The youngest of the legendary Hirano brothers made his mark on snowboarding by defying gravity with pure style and poise. And it’s just the beginning of his career. Who knows what’s next for Kaishu Hirano? Maybe it’s 25’5” at the next Olympics. Or perhaps a trip to the moon. Only time will tell for this mind-blowing, high-flier.
