[NEWS1]</em></span>   <span class="mask"></span>  </div>  </div>    <br> Snowboarder Choi Ga-on made history Thursday, capturing Korea’s first Olympic gold medal in a snow event by winning the women’s halfpipe final at Livigno Snow Park in Italy.  <br>    <br> The 17-year-old became the youngest athlete ever to win the event, breaking the previous record set by her idol, two-time Olympic champion Chloe Kim of the United States. Choi achieved the milestone seven months earlier than Kim had when she claimed her first Olympic title in 2018.  <br><br>Choi struggled in her opening two runs. She faltered on her first attempt after losing balance on a cab 1080 and crashing into the wall of the halfpipe. Her second run also fell short as she was unable to land her planned tricks cleanly.  <br>    <br> Facing pressure in her final run, Choi delivered a near-flawless performance. She began with a switch backside 900 and followed with a cab 720, a frontside 900 melon grab and a backside 900 stalefish. She closed with a frontside 720 Indy grab, earning a winning score of 90.25 points.  <br>    <br> Halfpipe snowboarding features athletes performing aerial tricks on a U-shaped course, with judges evaluating height, difficulty, execution and overall flow.  <br>    <br> Kim finished with 88.00 points to secure silver, while Japan’s Mitsuki Ono took bronze with 85.00.   <br>    <br> <div class="ab_photo photo_center ab_zoom">  <div class="image">   <span class="end_photo_org"><img src="https://imgnews.pstatic.net/image/640/2026/02/13/0000084454_002_20260213182710107.jpg" alt="" /><em class="img_desc">Choi Ga-on of Korea performs during the qualification of the women's halfpipe snowboard event on Feb. 12 at the Winter Olympics at Livigno Snow Park in Livigno, Italy.
