GU Ailing Eileen

GU Ailing Eileen is one of those people who seems to be good at everything. From winning three freestyle skiing medals (including two golds) at the Lausanne 2020 Youth Olympic Games, to gracing the front cover of Vogue Magazine, the part-time model is also an excellent student who is planning to go to Stanford University.

Aged 18, she became the first woman to land a forward double cork 1440 and is a rare ‘triple-threat’ in the three freeski events of half pipe, big air, and slopestyle. She’s also fluent in both English and Mandarin. With such a busy life, the Chinese two-time World Championship gold medallist in 2021 likes to chill out by cooking, especially dumplings with her grandmother. One of Gu's favourite ingredients? Truffle oil.
