Growing up on Sydney’s northern beaches Danielle Scott always thought of herself as a summer sports girl. To this day she loves to hit the ocean for a surf or just muck around on her skateboard. This despite being a silver and bronze medallist in the FIS Freestyle World Ski Championships, dual Olympian and twice finishing second in the World Cup. “I think I’ll always be a summer girl at heart,” says the easygoing 29-year-old. “If I have a choice to go to the snow or the beach, I’d definitely be choosing the beach.” In fact, Scott’s first love was gymnastics, which she began at the age of three and ‘retired’ from at 13 before getting into aerial skiing. Her eclectic athletic background is a testament to the importance of passion, perseverance and purpose. As she tells MH, you’ve got to “pursue what you love and if you don’t love it, then find what that is”.
