Limitless | Miyabi Onitsuka

This episode features Japanese snowboarder Miyabi Onitsuka.

The rate of progression in female snowboarding has changed the sport dramatically in the last few years. Miyabi is among these top female athletes pushing the boundaries.

Ahead of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, she wants to become the first female snowboarder athlete to land a cab double cork 1260 (three horizontal rotations and two vertical rotations in the same move) in competition.

This episode focuses on Miyabi’s approach physically and mentally to achieve such a feat.

** Limitless is a documentary series on four world-class snow-athletes, each striving to reach a new level in their performance ahead of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.
