FWT's own bio frames 2026 as her rookie season, having discovered freeride while coaching the Snowbasin Junior team before ever competing herself, then qualifying via a strong Challenger season. She made an immediate impact: 3rd at Val Thorens, 4th in Alaska, finishing the season above the Cut. Per SCOTT's own athlete Q&A (published Feb 2026, confirming her as a newly-signed SCOTT athlete), her season also included a 3rd at Kings & Queens of Corbet's and a 5th at Baqueira Beret, and she was the 2025 Overall IFSA Qualifier & Challenger Champion - the result that earned her tour spot. Background: born and raised in Ogden, Utah; discovered her passion for freeride entirely through coaching kids before ever competing herself. Equipment: confirmed SCOTT athlete; SCOTT's own product page for her specifically features the SCOTT Ambit goggle and SCOTT Team Issue SRS pole - no ski model confirmed via SCOTT. Some other unattributed sources list additional sponsors (Outdoor Research, Peak Performance, a brand called '1000Skis'), but none were corroborated by a primary source, so no ski Products row was created.
