I love to ski and after doing it for 18 years I am now at an elite level and have the honour to represent Australia in Ski Cross.

 

It’s been a massive journey since I took my first short slide on skis as a toddler at Mt Buller. The road has taken me to Mt Buller Race Club, European Cup, the 2016 Winter Youth Olympic Games, three World Junior Championships and now the FIS Ski Cross World Cup. When I compete in Val Thorens for the first Race of the season 210 million viewers will be watching across Europe, North America, China and Australia. I intend to give them something worth watching.

 

I’ve chosen a sport that doesn’t have mainstream support here in Australia, so what I’ve achieved has been done without funding or support from any national sporting bodies. Ski cross, is not part of the Australian Olympic program so as well as training and taking on the best in Europe, Asia and America I need to get creative about how to support myself and stay on the path to achieving my sporting dreams. It makes it a bigger challenge, but it’s one I’m not walking away from. I know I will find likeminded partners who find my commitment and passion inspiring and will want to be part of my quest. I thrive on a challenge and I hope that makes me not only a great athlete but also a great person.

  

The nature of my sport demands I live and train in Austria for 6 months which comes at considerable cost. Outside of this time I study, work and train at home in Mansfield, Victoria and mentor young snow athletes at Mt Buller.


Thanks you for your time and feel free to email me at dc@crawfab.com.au.


I look forward to putting on an amazing season for all my supporters!
