Most difficult thing you’ve ever done

Break the World Record in Women’s Trick

Most rewarding part of your job

Traveling and meeting young skiers from all over the world

If you could give someone a piece of advice, what would it be?

Whenever I’m nervous for a tournament I ask myself if it’s my last tournament ever. It never is so I can tell myself to go for it, roll the dice, and where they fall, they fall.

Favorite feature on the Nautique you ski behind

The Ski Nautique’s fully redesigned hull and HydroGate - not everybody knows how it is possible for the world’s best slalom boat (which demands very small wakes) to also be the world’s very best trick boat (which demands larger and more defined wakes). The key to this versatility is the HydroGate, which allows the transom to be elevated for slalom or deep in the water for tricks. No other boat has anywhere near this versatility.

Favorite Music to Play on Your Nautique

“Revolving Door”
“Just Keep Watching”
“Uh Oh”

(Tate McRae is all I listen to)
