Engadin 2025 Team Announcement | Aerials & Moguls

Snow Australia has named 13 athletes to compete in Aerials and Moguls skiing at the 2025 FIS Snowboard, Freestyle & Freeski World Championships in Engadin, Switzerland, with medal hopes littered throughout the team.

AERIALS
Australia has named five Aerial skiers for this year’s World Championships, all of whom have stood on the World Cup podium.

Laura Peel has been in rare form this year, winning four of her six individual World Cup starts and earning another Team podium as well. If victorious in Switzerland, the two-time World Champion could achieve the rare feat of winning world titles a decade apart.

Danielle Scott has won the last two Crystal Globes and been on the World Championships podium three times before, but is still chasing her first crown.

Abbey Willcox has competed in nearly 30 World Cups over the last six years but makes her first appearance at the World Championships at 28 years of age. Willcox finished third at this year’s World Cup in Deer Valley as part of the historic Australian 1-2-3-4 result.

Airleigh Frigo was the unlucky member of that quartet not to take home a medal, however she did break through for her first World Cup podium less than two weeks prior in Canada and heads into her second World Champs after 14th place at Bakuriani in 2023.

The only male member of the team is 20-year-old Reilly Flanagan. At his very first World Cup, Flanagan stood on the podium with Peel and Willcox in the Mixed Team event, and he will contest this competition in Switzerland as well as the individual event.

The Team competition will be the first Aerials event of the World Championships on Thursday 27 March before individual qualifying takes place the following Saturday. Men’s and Women’s Finals will be held on the last day of the Championships on Sunday 30 March.

MOGULS
There is no shortage of talent in the eight Australians who will be taking to the moguls course in the Engadin Valley.

George Murphy, Emma Bosco and Winter Youth Olympic medallist Lottie Lodge will be on World Championships debut, as will Charlotte Wilson who announced herself as a genuine contender this week.

In her maiden World Cup season, Wilson was named Rookie of the Year on Tuesday, and celebrated by winning the Dual Moguls at the Olympic Test Event in Livigno on Wednesday - her first career victory at the top level.

Wilson, Bosco and Lodge will compete alongside Olympic gold medallist Jakara Anthony who is back in action after a shoulder injury derailed her World Cup season. With 32 World Cup wins and five Crystal Globes on the mantlepiece, the one this missing is a World Championships title.

Rounding out the moguls team are Jackson Harvey, Cooper Woods and Matt Graham.

Harvey took home a top 20 dual moguls result from the 2023 World Championships while Woods - with a World Cup podium in 2024 and top 10 finishes at Olympic and World Championships level - can match it with the best on his day.

Graham has been on the World Championships dais four times in his career, including a pair of podiums at Bakuriani in 2023. The PyeongChang silver medallist took a heavy crash in the Big Final of the final World Cup of the season this week but is hopeful of being ready in time for the World Championships.

Men’s and Women’s Moguls qualifying will take place on Tuesday 18 March with finals to be held the following day. It’s then a couple of days off before dual moguls is contested on Friday 21 March.

Tomorrow, Snow Australia announce the athletes competing in the Park & Pipe disciplines, rounding out selections for the 2025 FIS Snowboard, Freestyle & Freeski World Championships.
