Dania Assaly grew up in Edmonton , AB. Skiing since she was 3 years old, she began her career skiing in Jasper, AB skiing at Marmot Basin she became involved with competitive freeskiing at the age of 15 and never looked back. Dania is currently riding with some of the biggest names in the pipe and is sponsored by Roxy and Smith Optics. Using infamous skiers such as Roxy team member Sarah Burke and Mike Henitiuk to look up to, Dania has become a well know name in women's half pipe skiing. Dania relates her greatest accomplishment two major injuries and ability to come back strong and place well in a variety of competitions in the 07/08 season. Her stats from the previous year and her recent participation in the Breckenridge Dew Tour has allowed Dania to be the 1st alternate at this years X-Games one of the biggest competitions in the skiing industry. I am excited to say we will all be there cheering her on this Thursday as the X-Games kicks off at Aspen/Snow Mass. Keep an eye out for this blonde bombshell whether she is dancing in the street singing her heart out to Britney Spears or slaying it in the pipe this girl never has a dull moment or a bad attitude!
