Discipline: Ski Halfpipe

Olympic Participation: Sochi 2014

Amy was born in Australia, however she grew up in New Zealand.

She made her World Cup debut in 2008 and made 9 appearances over 6 years. She placed 3^rd in the Calgary World Cup in 2014 and 3^rd in the Breckenridge World Cup the following week, making a great lead into the Olympics.

Amy delivered a top-10 performance for Australia when Ski Halfpipe made its Olympic debut at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games. Sheehan claimed the last spot in the 12-woman final with a score of 70.60 points from her ‘safety’ run in qualifying. In the final Amy attempted the same run that had won her bronze medals at the last two World Cups leading into the Games. Unfortunately, she came unstuck with a switch 720 trick mid-pipe on both of her final runs. Her final score of 40.60 points was not reflective of her ability on a good day, but Amy was proud of her performance regardless.

Her brother Lyndon also competed in Ski Halfpipe at the Sochi Games, competing for New Zealand.
