Brittany Phelan has been to the Olympics three times -- in two different sports. Her Olympic debut came as part of the Canadian Alpine Ski Team in 2014, where she competed in slalom. After the 2014 games, she switched to ski cross and has continued to build momentum and earn podium results since. Phelan, alongside Kelsey Serwa, nicknamed “The Dirt Squirrels,” charged their way to gold and silver medals in at the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang. 

Yet, it’s not been all about the Olympic stage for the Mont-Tremblant, Quebec native, who has established herself among the greats on the World Cup circuit. The now 33-year-old finished the 2018-19 season third on the World Cup circuit and continued her success with four podium finishes in 2019-20.  

While she posted a trio of podium finishes in 2021-22, the 2023-24 season was a massive one. She captured eight podium finishes, with wins in Idre Fjall, SWE, and Reiteralm, AUT, in addition to a home snow medal, third in Nakiska, all leading to a third place finish in the overall World Cup ranking.  

Healthy for another season, and having put up the best year of her career, Phelan returns to the Canadian contingent as a critical veteran in 2024-25, hoping to claim her first Crystal Globe.
