Despite being one of the longest serving Australian Institute of Sport / Olympic Winter Institute scholarships holders, Holly is clearly showing that the best years of her glittering halfpipe career may still be ahead. With a World Championship title under her wing and 16 podium finishes in World Cup events, including four victories, she is among the elite group of halfpipe riders in the world, always posing a threat to any title she chases.

Having performed admirably at the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Winter Games, anything is possible when she hurtles down the pipe at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games in Russia.
