Freeriding Titles

Describe a highlight moment from your 2017 IFSA season.
Dropping in at the freeride junior world championships in Grandvalira, Andorra and even though there were tough conditions and low visibility it was the greatest feeling ever to know that you had made it there and were getting to ride a venue that very few in the world ever get the chance to. And although my run didn't go as planned the whole experience was incredible in itself.
Where can you be found when you are not freeriding?
Playing Ultimate Frisbee or hanging out with friends.
What topic makes you fired up?
When people say that girls cant shred as hard as the dudes.
What would you like to see change in the world and how can you make it happen?
I would like to see women's sports get the same opportunities and exposure as men's sports do. I can make this happen by playing/ riding my best to show the world that girls can reach those limits too.
Tell us something about yourself that is unusual or little known.
My favorite book is "Oh! The places you'll go!" by Dr. Suess and I think that pickles and peanut butter is an good combination.
Freestyle Q!
If tomorrow were your last day to live, what would you do with it?
