Biography
Teddy Karlinski grew up as the quintessential Colorado kid, hitting the slopes in the winter and the fairways in the summer. A standout snowboarder and golfer in high school, Teddy has moved on to Front Range College where his quest to compete in snowboarding at the X Games continues.

Teddy and his younger sister, Jordie, are well known on the slopes around Aspen where they have been tearing it up since childhood. In fact, Teddy deserves more than a little bit of credit for Jordie’s success in women’s snowboarding as his little sister was able to hone her talents by trying to keep up with her big brother and his friends. While Teddy has found the men’s elite field tougher to break into, he takes a step or two closer every season.

During the 2006 season, Teddy was runner-up in the slopestyle competition at the Jackson Hole stop on the Chevrolet Reunion Tour. He was also fifth in slopestyle at the 2006 Mount Bachelor (Ore.) Grand Prix.

Teddy’s training includes a significant amount of backcountry boarding, where he has performed tricks for several video productions. He would like to pursue additional opportunities in the sports video and movie business.

For now, snowboarding is Teddy’s main passion, but golf prowess isn’t out of the question for his future. As a high school senior, Teddy was the runner-up at the Colorado 4A Golf Championships.

Personal
Teddy’s parents are Andy and Suzy. He has two sisters, Jordie and Alex. Teddy is enrolled at the University of Northern Colorado
