Nine-year-old Kelly Sildaru is a better skier than you

By: Heather Hendricks

At only nine years of age, Kelly Sildaru is already making waves with her newly released, self-titled skiing edit. The young-gun hails from Tallinn, Estonia, and has been skiing since she was just two years old. At age seven, she made her first appearance on Newschoolers with edit called Playgrounds, and has been gaining momentum ever since. In her latest video, which hit the web on Monday, Sildaru hits big jumps and massive rails, and spins both ways with confidence.

Even Tanner Hall took notice of this burgeoning star and tweeted in his classic all-caps style: "KELLY SILDARU COULD BE THE BEST PARK SHREDDER FOR GIRLS RIGHT NOW AND SHE IS ONLY 9 YEARS OLD! CHECK THIS EDIT."

We're impressed, Tanner's impressed. Are you?

It'll be interesting to see where this young girl will go!

Yeah, we didn't really think that was possible either, but this video from Stale's sponsors proves it.

After seeing the video, we had to know what was going through Sandbech's mind when he stomped the new trick...
