Indra Brown converts a rapid rise into a first World Cup win
The 15-year-old won the Calgary freeski halfpipe and opened her first three World Cup starts with three podiums.
Australia's Indra Brown earned her first freeski halfpipe World Cup victory in Calgary with a score of 85.20. At 15, she became the youngest Australian to win a World Cup event, turning an early-season breakthrough into a record for her national programme.
The win was also Brown's third podium from her first three World Cup starts. That sequence makes the result more than a one-off peak: it shows immediate repeatability at senior international level and puts athlete development, load management and progression under a brighter spotlight.
