Canadian freestyle skier Sarah Burke started out on the wrong foot at the Women’s Superpipe Finals at the Winter X Games in Aspen, Colorado.
The tricks weren’t working, her rhythm was just a little bit off.
Then, according to the AP, the freestyle skier suddenly discovered her flaw – she wasn’t pumping Dr. Dre on her iPod. Burke cranked the hip-hop artist on her final run, dropped into the pipe and flawlessly hit all her stunts to win her third straight Winter X skiing superpipe title Friday night.
“Dr. Dre always pulls me through,” the 25-year-old told journalists.
With her alley-oop maneuvre slightly off, Burke decided to bag it, going with a nice, easy run on her final attempt. It was her third straight superpipe gold.
What do you put on the iPod to get you through?
White noise is getting me through the daily slalom of late…
