U.S. para snowboarder Noah Elliott made a triumphant return to Steamboat Springs, where his snowboarding journey began, by claiming the Men’s LL1 World Cup Overall Crystal Globe at the Para Snowboard World Cup finale. Elliott, donning a black cowboy hat and Western attire, paid homage to the community that nurtured his career.

Elliott’s connection to Steamboat is deeply personal. At age 15, he was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a bone cancer in his left leg. During treatment, he visited Steamboat through the Sunshine Kids Foundation, falling in love with the mountains and the community. After his amputation, he began snowboarding in Steamboat, marking the start of his remarkable career.

Now 27, Elliott is a two-time Paralympian, having won gold in banked slalom and bronze in snowboard cross in 2018. He returned to Steamboat in 2018 and worked with Steamboat Adaptive Recreational Sports until 2022, helping others learn adaptive snowboarding. Elliott currently resides in Colorado Springs.

The Para Snowboard World Cup’s return to the U.S. after eight years was facilitated by Steamboat Resort, following cancellations in Europe. This event featured two World Cup races, three NorAm Cup races, and the U.S. Para Snowboard Championships, providing a significant opportunity for U.S. athletes to compete on home snow.

Elliott’s achievement is a testament to his perseverance and dedication. His win solidifies his position as one of the world’s top para snowboarders, and his connection to Steamboat remains strong, symbolizing a full-circle moment in his career.
