Alexandria Loutitt may have won the World Championship ski jump several weeks back, but sheSA国际影视传媒檚 only recently stopped flying.

SA国际影视传媒�(The euphoria) kind of has died down a little bit. I was so happy that it happened but you know, there are another few World Cups left in the season,SA国际影视传媒� she said.

SA国际影视传媒淪o itSA国际影视传媒檚 not my last chance to finish on the podium.SA国际影视传媒�

Part GwichSA国际影视传媒檌n, Loutitt is the first Canadian woman to win a medal at the World Championships SA国际影视传媒� let alone the gold SA国际影视传媒� after hitting a 95-metre landing on the Yamagata HS100 ski jump hill in Za艒, Japan on Jan. 13, finishing the event with 240.3 points and putting her 15th overall in the 2022SA国际影视传媒�23 FIS Ski Jumping World Cup season.

And that was on a landing she thought could have been better.

SA国际影视传媒淚 did not telemark and the fact that I won without a telemark is basically unheard of,SA国际影视传媒� she said. SA国际影视传媒淲e were jumping in tailwind conditions, which is a very difficult condition to jump in. The athletes that thrive in that conditions are athletes like me where they are a little bit more patient going down, but have a really powerful and high explosive jump.SA国际影视传媒�

A week later, she became the only woman at the World Junior Championships in Whistler to sail 101.5 metres, shattering the previous record and claiming another gold medal in the process.

Loutitt said her focus was on nailing the telemark and she felt like she had made significant improvement.

SA国际影视传媒滿ost of my big struggles are still mental blocks,SA国际影视传媒� she said. SA国际影视传媒淪ometimes ISA国际影视传媒檒l lose focus or get overexcited and want to try too hard.

SA国际影视传媒淪o itSA国际影视传媒檚 kind of just keep that under wraps and, you know, stay focused and keep my head in the game. This is a super mentally driven sport. ThatSA国际影视传媒檚 why older athletes tend to thrive in the sport versus the younger ones. Although itSA国际影视传媒檚 really technical you donSA国际影视传媒檛 have crazy physical strength to do well in this sport.SA国际影视传媒�

ThereSA国际影视传媒檚 been little rest for Loutitt. Since her Whistler record-breaking jump, sheSA国际影视传媒檚 hit the slopes in Austria for another World Cup competition and is now resting up for a 200-metre jump in Norway and then finishing off the season in Lahti, Finland.

Thanking her coaches for their ongoing support, Loutitt said she was proud of her accomplishments and hoped she could show others the path to their full potential.

SA国际影视传媒淚 hope my success can inspire young women and young girls and indigenous athletes to pursue sport whether it be jumping or other sports.SA国际影视传媒�
