BIO

Rowmark Academy grad Breezy Johnson moved up to A Team in the 2017-18 season after bursting onto the World Cup scene in a big way during the 2016-17 season, where she finished 18th in the FIS Ski World Cup downhill standings and 36th in super-G.  She started the season with a bang, finishing in 11th place in the first downhill at Lake Louise and never looking back.  A 10th-place finish at Cortina in downhill qualified Breezy to go to the World Alpine Ski Championships in St. Moritz. As the youngest member of the U.S. squad there, she raced to a 15th place in downhill and 28th in super-G.

In 2018, of her 15 downhill and super-G starts, Johnson was in the points ten times, top 15 five times, top 10 four times, and narrowly missed her first podium in Garmisch, with fourth place. Johnson qualified for her first Olympic team and grabbed a solid 14th place result in super-G and a seventh in the downhill. An incredible result for the first-time Olympian. 

It was the 2021 and 2022 seasons where Johnson had her career best moments. In 2021 Johnson finished on the podium four times, taking third place in both Val d'Isere downhills, St. Anton and Crans Montana. She did it again in 2022 getting back-to-back second place finishes in Lake Louise, and another second place finish in Val d'Isere. 

Breezy enjoys pretty much anything athletic although she admits that her coordination is pretty abysmal. In summer if she’s not doing flips on her parent’s trampoline in Victor, Idaho, she might out running on the trails with her dog or slacklining in the woods.

"I want to be one of the greatest speed skiers ever and inspire a new generation of women in speed and sport."
