Ryding has represented Team GB in three Winter Olympics and will be captaining the team at his fourth Games on 4 February.on Friday and will be hoping to continue to momentum from Austria to China.
Ryding started skiing on dry slopes in Pendle, Lancashire, at the age of eight but didn't reach the world's top table until the age of 28.Speaking to Team GB in November, he said:"Coming to the top later means my motivation is still right up there. "I trained my whole life to get into the top 30 in the world and now I'm there, so why not carry on. I've learned how to be committed and now it's a way of life.
"I get up some mornings and can't be arsed to go to the gym - but I just roll out of the door and I never miss a session. "In my twenties, I didn't go out partying. I've always done my training and I think that does pay off in later life. I'm doing better numbers in the gym and running than I've ever done."
