Информация Sarah

Sarah Burke has earned her reputation as one of the world’s best skiers. While growing up in Midland Ontario, Canada, Sarah began competing on moguls at age 15 and traveled all over North America with the Ontario Ski Team. Two years later she shifted to Freeride and quickly became a fierce competitor in that arena. Now, at only 26-years-old, Sarah has transformed into a pioneer of women’s freestyle skiing and is responsible for advancing the sport to what it is today. Sarah has continued to forge the way for more women’s events after already proving her unmistakable talent and innovative skills while competing against the boys. After just ten years of competitive skiing, Sarah is now one of the most recognized women in her sport.

Sarah has managed to win every major competition in both Superpipe and Slopestyle. She took home the gold in the ski Superpipe at the 2009 Winter X Games. In 2007 at the World Skiing Invitational in Canada, Sarah became the first and only woman to land a 1080-degree spin in competition. That same year, Burke took home her first Winter X Games gold medal, which she successfully defended at the 2008 Winter X Games in January. During 2006, Sarah won a gold medal in the ski Half-pipe contest at the World Cup finals, a gold medal in the Half-pipe and silver in the Slopestyle at the U.S. Open as well as taking the silver medal in the ski Superpipe at the Winter X Games. In 2005, she won the coveted Federation Internationale de Ski World Freestyle Ski, U.S. Freeskiing Open SuperPipe and the World Superpipe Championships. In 2003 Sarah unfortunately tore her MCI at the U.S Open halfpipe and a week later she ripped her meniscus in her left knee. Despite her injuries, Sarah continued to compete winning four out of the five contests that she entered that year!
