Canada has revealed its lineup of alpine skiers and ski cross racers for the upcoming 2024/25 campaign, and once again contributing its fair share of talent is Whistler. 

The alpine men's roster is full of Whistler Mountain Ski Club (WMSC) alumni like former World Champion and Olympic bronze medallist Jack Crawford, Asher Jordan, Brodie and Riley Seger, Cameron and Kyle Alexander. Broderick Thompson is also listed despite experiencing a severe head injury during a Dec. 1, 2023 training crash.

Four-time Crystal Globe winner Marielle Thompson headlines a deep ladies' ski cross squad alongside fellow Whistlerite Tiana Gairns, who is close to full strength after rehabilitating a knee ailment. 

Sascha Gilbert is entering his first year on the CAST D developmental program.

Emeline Bennett and Nicholas Katrusiak are back with the NextGen ski cross unit.

Last but not least: Mollie Jepsen and Michaela Gosselin have been named to the women's para-alpine team, with Alexis Guimond on the men's side.
