Who is Toby Miller?

Toby Miller hails from California. He began snowboarding when he was six years old, and today he excels in slopestyle and halfpipe. Miller’s family has been instrumental in pursuing the sport. When he was eight years old, they relocated from Southern California to Lake Tahoe, so he could have easier access to the mountains.

Despite their 14-year age difference, Toby and Shaun quickly became friends. “I look up to him. Who doesn’t? Look at what he’s done for the sport,” Miller shared in an interview about Shaun. “But now, I consider him family. When we’re hanging out, it doesn’t feel like he’s that much older than me. It just feels like two dudes hanging out.”

He started his career in 2014 and has been making steady progress since then. In 2018, he became the Junior World Champion. He injured his right ankle in 2021 and has not participated much since then.
