Getting creative with injuries.

May 6, 2013 by chickswithstix

words by Lauren Staveley While my northern winter started off really well, unfortunately it was cut short when I broke my foot at the World Cup in the Czech Republic. I broke my 5th metatarsal on my right foot. But not too worry after 6 weeks on crutches I am back walking and have begun a serious rehab program with Anthony Khoury which will have me back on track by June. Apart from breaking my foot I had an awesome […]

Skiing in Romania with Hanna Fisher

April 22, 2013 by chickswithstix

Reading through the other girls’ blogs on the Chicks with Stix website always serves to remind me how great and variable skiing is. We all love the mountains, and love skiing, yet all participate in completely different events! One thing I love about competing in Big Mountain competitions is the strange and wonderful places it takes you to. I never would have thought I would end up in a small mountain lodge in a hike-only, no ski lifts apart from […]

Winter recap with Britt Cox

April 12, 2013 by chickswithstix

Britt charging down the moguls, photo: Kirk Paulsen One of the best things about my northern season just gone is that I got to do LOTS of skiing. This was the longest season I have ever had, starting on snow in Ruka, Finland in late November and skiing all the way through until mid March. I also got to see some new places and ski a few new mogul courses, which is always exciting. One of those courses happened to […]

End of Season Blog: Katya Crema

April 9, 2013 by chickswithstix

Training with Sami Kennedy Sim I am happy to say that I have finished off my World Cup season strongly (and in one piece), with a 15th and 8th place finish in Åre, Sweden. With three top 8s this season, my results put me into 16th place in the overall World Cup rankings, making it my best season finish to date. This weekend in Åre was a double event, making it a long intense four days of competition. Before things got started […]

Freeride World Tour, Stop 1: Revelstoke

January 8, 2013 by chickswithstix

words by Nat Segal No matter how long or hard you train and prepare for a winter of competitions, the first is always fairly daunting. Despite having a history in competitive skiing, I always have butterflies the week leading up to a big event and this one is definitely the biggest so far. For the last four years I have been competing in big mountain. Last winter I qualified for the Freeride World Tour. It’s the boss of all big […]

December 13, 2012 by chickswithstix

Words by Nat Segal As the age old adage goes, ‘if you want to get something done, you’ve got to do it yourself’. It is with this in mind that professional skier and infamous badass, Rachael Burks, created FemaleWolfpack.com. Rachael, after spending many years shredding the gnar, competing in the Freeskiing World Tour and filming with the likes TGR and Warren Miller Entertainment, noticed a lack of opportunity for female exposure in the extreme sports community. “I’ve been skiing professionally for 6 years and have […]

Learning to fly

November 3, 2012 by chickswithstix

words by Britt Cox Here is a pic of me having a flying lesson for my 18th birthday. But different to being in the air on skis but still lots of fun! It’s just less than 3 weeks until the northern winter starts for me. I have been soaking up the sun while studying for my year 12 exams because I won’t be seeing much of that once my season starts in Ruka, Finland (its dark most of the day […]
