Huw William Harvey Nightingale (born 12 November 2001) is an English snowboarder, competing in the snowboard cross discipline. He was named to Great Britain's 2022 Winter Olympics team. In the 2026 Winter Olympics, he, alongside partner Charlotte Bankes, won Great Britain's first ever gold medal in a snow event. == Career == At his first Olympic Games, in 2022, Nightingale placed sixth in the mixed event alongside Charlotte Bankes. On 3 March 2023, Nightingale made history with teammate Charlotte Bankes, to claim the country’s first ever snowboard cross mixed team title, at the 2023 World Championships. On 14 December 2025, Nightingale won the gold medal alongside Charlotte Bankes, in the mixed team event at the Snowboard Cross World Cup in Cervinia, Italy. Nightingale has spoken about his role in the team: "The guy's job is to try and stay in contact with everybody and as close as possible. There's no point in them doing everything to win because if they crash, that's a big problem. If I can make a massive lead, perfect. But otherwise, first, second or third, it's more the time gap that matters." Nightingale competed in two events for Great Britain at the 2026 Winter Olympics. He came tenth in the men's snowboard cross, and teamed up with Charlotte Bankes for the mixed team competition, with the duo winning the gold medal, the first ever gold medal for Great Britain in a snow sport and the second medal for Great Britain at the Games overall. == Career results == === Olympic medals === == References == == External links == Huw Nightingale at the International Ski and Snowboard Federation Huw Nightingale at Team GB Huw Nightingale at Milano Cortina 2026 Huw Nightingale at Olympics.com Huw Nightingale at Olympedia Huw Nightingale at InterSportStats
