At just 18 years of age, Rebel Gym coach and Superior Heights graduate Sylas Snider will head to Los Angeles next month to compete on American Ninja Warrior
Sylas Snider, a Rebel Gym coach and Superior Heights graduate, will be heading to Los Angeles, CA next month to compete on American Ninja Warrior – the hit sports entertainment show where America’s top athletes tackle some of the most challenging obstacle courses on the planet.
“One day we were watching the show, and we went to the backyard and started building some of the obstacles in our backyard,” he says. “We’ve been watching it for a long time.”Those fantasies became a reality on Feb. 1, 2023. “By going on the show, I can help spread awareness for that and raise money for the Twinkie Foundation,” he says. “The charity raises money for kids with congenital heart defects and for their families. I’ve been with them for a while now and they’ve been super supportive.”
The semi-finalists will then fly back down to compete for a spot in the national final, which is set to take place in Las Vegas this May. “On the show, they don’t allow you to have chalk,” he says. “So, in training, I won’t be using chalk anymore.”
