Tucker Hibert
Tucker Hibbert became a Prowler in 1990 when his family moved from Driggs, Idaho to Thief River Falls, Minn. Although he didn’t play traditional sports, he became one of the world’s top snowmobile racers before graduating from Lincoln High School in 2002.
While a sophomore, he was launched into the action sports limelight after winning snocross’ highest profile event – ESPN’s Winter X Games in 2000. Shortly after, he turned pro in both snocross and motocross. While many young professional athletes leave traditional school to focus on training and competing, Tucker stayed in high school and worked closely with his teachers to keep on track with his schoolwork. While juggling high school and racing, he won two X Games medals, four national snocross titles and traveled across the US and Canada in the summer to race motocross.
Racing has provided Tucker the opportunity to travel around the world. Over the years, he has competed in Canada, Sweden, Finland and Russia. He is now one of the world’s most recognized action sports athletes and the most successful snocross racer in the history of the sport. Before turning 30, he amassed nearly 100 professional snocross wins, two world titles, eight national championships and two ESPN ESPY Award Nominations. He is still competing professionally in both snocross and motocross and has no plans to slow down anytime soon.
Tucker married his high school sweetheart, Mandi Johnson, in 2007. They currently spend their winters in Thief River Falls as Tucker continues to race for Arctic Cat.
