Born into a family passionate about mountain sports, Chloé Cornu Wong developed a love of skiing from a young age. Her passion for adventure led her to embrace the alpine skies as her natural playground. With each descent, she pushes her physical and mental limits. The skier quickly attracted interest in the world of alpine skiing. She successfully passed the tests to join the Hong Kong national team and rank among the elite of the world. Descending steep slopes day after day, Chloé embodies the new generation of skiing.

Chloé stands out on the international stage for her ability to adapt to her environment. With each slope featuring different terrain, she must demonstrate great adaptability to master the descents. She balances pure technique with anticipation to master each element.

Injuries and harsh weather conditions are part of her journey, but she sees them as opportunities for growth. Her perseverance in the face of adversity inspires her peers.
Preparing for the 2026 Winter Olympics?
The 2026 Winter Olympics are an important championship, how are they preparing?
She told us: “ Our sports season is divided into two periods: summer and winter. The ski season is shorter than in other disciplines, so in winter we train a lot. Every morning we are on the slopes early enough to take advantage of the best possible snow conditions. In summer, we are more on a physical cycle with weight training, cycling, and cardio as well, and we also organize camps in glaciers in Italy.
