Kirsty is now competing on the World Cup circuit and in only her second Freeski Slopestyle World Cup, came 2nd in Aspen in March ’21. She landed her Dub 12 in competition for the first time in the finals, earning her first WC podium at 16 years old. Finishing the season in 2nd place overall in the World Cup season standings in Slopestyle and 5th place overall Park & Pipe World Cup season standings.
