I have an upcoming dance class during stampede in Calgary and have decided to auction off myself as a dance partner for charity. Basically the winning bidder will have the opportunity to two-step and line-dance with me for the duration of the class and will receive a soft shell jacket from ACA and two Canadian Cowboys t-shirts as well.
Well the huge Olympic season has come to an end and although the Olympic result wasn't exactly what I was looking for, the overall experience was way beyond what I expected and the support from all Canadians touched me and my teammates immensely. Racing in front of my home crowed at an Olympic games will be something I'll never forget. As for the rest of the season, I finished 3 times 5th place, 4 other in the top 10, and 9th overall for the year. So with all that, it was my 2nd best season ever and our slalom team is the strongest its ever been. I look forward to a nice break for the next couple months, some beach, surf, and relation and then back to the gym. With every year I learn and build on what I have and I can't wait to see what the next season will bring. Thank you to all my sponsors and to everyone who supported me in this amazing year. Thank you!

Happy New Year! Time for Slalom
An update of my last race, the injury situation and the month of slalom to come.
5th in Alta Badia, the last World Cup, how we're solving the injury problem facing us racers and a look forward to the 6 slalom races this month. Read on...
I’m very happy with how my season has started. I won’t bore you with talking too much about the first World Cup in Levi as it was a 14th place because I think the race in Russia is more interesting, location and result, but I will say that it was a solid finish. I don’t think it reflected on how fast I was training prior to the race, but to come away with some points is always good. So after Levi I flew to Moscow for the exhibition duel slalom event
