Fun Facts


 While staying at her family vacation home in Vermont in 1985, Weinbrecht taught herself how to ski moguls by watching others bounce over the bumps.
 Since then, she has racked up 46 World Cup freestyle victories. Away from the ski course, she loves to go sailing. She recently went river rafting in Colorado.
