Injury Update: Charlie Raposo, Charlie Lane, Kirsty Muir

Update on World Cup Squad Members

GB Snowsport can confirm the following injury status updates on members of GBS World Cup Squads

Charlie Raposo – Alpine

At the first of last weekend’s Aspen World Cup races, Charlie sustained an ACL tear and bruising to the tibia which will keep him sidelines for a period of time. Charlie will spend the rest of the season working on recovery and rehabilitation, and will be assessed throughout his recovery to determine the appropriate steps in his return to snow.

Charlie Lane – Freestyle Snowboard

Charlie remains under an extended return-to-snow programme following the radial head injury he sustained at the beginning of the year, having sustained a head injury during his initial return-to-snow training. He is being supported by the GB Snowsport Sport Sciences and Medicine Team and UK Sports Institute practitioners.

Kirsty Muir – freeski

Kirsty has undergone successful surgery on the knee injury she sustained at Copper Mountain World Cup, as well as a second surgery on a longstanding shoulder injury which she has been managing through competition and training. Kirsty remains focused on her rehabilitation alongside GB Snowsport Sport Sciences and Medicine staff and practitioners from UK Sports Institute.
