France's Marie Martinod took silver after crashing in her final run, guaranteeing Sharpe the top spot. The best of three runs is a skier's final score in ski halfpipe. After I landed that I was like 'OK, this is it, you can do this, if you land the second run you can bump your score,'" said Sharpe. Canada’s @CassieSharpe of Comox, BC just won the gold in ski halfpipe! Sharpe added that she owes her halfpipe success to the work Burke did in bringing the sport into the international spotlight.
