Professional snowboarder Mia Brooks has revealed that she is "listening to a lot of Pantera" ahead of competing at the Winter Olympics, where she is representing Great Britain.

The 19-year-old missed out on a medal earlier in the week, finishing in fourth place, after failing to perform a move called the "1620 trick."

As she revealed to the Guardian, before the competition she mentally prepared herself for the big moment with the help of a playlist she made, which includes many songs by the band "Pantera".

"The only time I've ever done a 1620 was during training a month ago. This was my first time trying it on snow. I thought I did it, I just put in too much effort, listening to the music too loud. I was listening to a lot of 'Panther' songs," she said.

"I listen to music to try to block out the noise around me. I mostly listen to metal music like 'Metallica', 'Pantera', 'Judas Priest' and stuff like that," Brooks revealed.
