She's not the reigning Olympic champion, but Torino silver medalist Gretchen Bleiler is the face of women's snowboarding... Born in Ohio and raised in Aspen, the photogenic halfpipe star has earned the nickname "Super G" due in part to a massive well of energy that fuels an array of off-snow endeavors... Last summer, Bleiler was married in Costa Rica, making her grand entry into the ceremony on a horse.
