Snowboard Cross star takes sixth individual podium of season

Charlotte Bankes’ World Cup campaign delivered a sixth individual Snowboard Cross podium of the season today with bronze in the Austrian resort of Montafon.

Qualifying in ninth place, Bankes topped her Quarter Final race and was second in Semi Finals, before finding herself at the back of the pack in the Big Final, coming through after the third interval to seize third place ahead of Australia’s Josie Baff and behind the French pair of Lea Casta and Julia Pereira de Sousa in first and second respectively.

The result means Bankes has now taken podiums at six out of eight individual World Cup appearances this season, and leaves her firmly in the hunt for the 2024/25 Crystal Globe with one World Cup meet left in the season in Mt. St. Anne in April.
