The first Ski Cross World Cup event of 2020 has taken place in Nakiska, Canada, with NSWIS athlete Sami Kennedy-Sim starting the year with a top ten performance.
Kennedy-Sim qualified for finals in 12th place, in a time of 1:16.29, 3.76 seconds behind first place qualifier Fanny Smith of Switzerland.
In finals, Kennedy-Sim placed third in her first-round heat, behind eventual winner Marielle Thompson of Canada, and was unable to progress to her next round.
This gave Kennedy-Sim a final ranking of tenth, and a World Cup season ranking of 12th after seven events so far this season.
