RIDER BIO
Calynn Irwin grew up in Toronto, Ontario. After seeing the Canada Snowboard Nationals come to Georgian Peaks in 1996 and the resort build its first halfpipe, Irwin ditched her skis, jumped on a board and started jumping off everything.
Irwin holds 2 Podiums and 2 top fifths at the Canada Snowboard National Championships, 13th at the 2014 US Open in Vail Colorado and a 2nd place finish at the 2014 SnowCrown at Blue Mountain. Irwin has competed in five US Snowboarding Championships with a tenth place being her best result.
In the summer, she enjoys playing tennis and golf with her father. Irwin is currently studying classical studies at Queen’s University and supports Camp Amici, a charity that helps send underprivileged kids to summer camp. (www.amicicharity.org)
