Story that defines who you are

"I was the French champion in mogul skiing at 12 years old but then tore my ACL at 13 and had surgery. I came back at 14 and became French vice champion of Slopestyle but then tore my other ACL at 16, and after another surgery I had to stop freestyle skiing. I started Freeride skiing at 17 but got really sick at 19 and spent 6 weeks in hospital, a few months later I won my first podium on a FWQ 4* event. My motivation and my determination brought me to where I am today."
