Courtney Hoffos

From Windermere, B.C., Courtney Hoffos had a breakthrough season in 2019-20. After sitting out 2018-19 with injury, she returned to the tour on fire, finishing on the podium in her first three World Cup races. She switched to ski cross at 17 years old, after racing alpine for over a decade, and has never looked back.

At the end of 2019-20, she was voted FIS Freestyle women's Rookie of the Year. The now 27-year-old’s World Cup podium breakthrough came in 2019 when she won silver in Val Thorens.

After finishing on the podium five times leading up to her first Olympics of Beijing 2022, Hoffos qualified for the small final at the Games, finishing sixth. Since then, her lone podium performance came on home snow, finishing second on home snow in Craigleith, ON, in 2022-23.

Since then, it’s been a tough road. Hoffos picked up a knee injury in Austria during preseason preparations and missed the entirety of the 2023-24 World Cup season but is set to return for 2024-25.
