David Wise (born June 30, 1990) is an American freestyle skier, two-time Olympic gold medalist and four-time X Games Gold Medalist. In 2014, Wise won his third consecutive gold at X Games XVIII in Aspen, Colo. before heading to Sochi for the 2014 Winter Olympics where he became the first gold medalist in the Men's Freeski Halfpipe which debuted in the Winter Games that year. In 2018, after struggling both personally and professionally since his win in Sochi, Wise won his fourth gold at the X Games just before he left for PyeongChang to defend his Olympic title. After a sub-par qualifying competition that placed him in the fifth drop-in position for the finals, Wise failed to complete each of his first two runs due, in both cases, to a binding malfunction. On his third and final run, Wise completed a career-best run to take gold with a score of 97.20 to win his second Olympic Gold.
