Brendan Mackay currently leads the Snow League standings after an intense head-to-head final against Luke Harrold in China. Mackay delivered a showcase of endurance and technical precision in a dramatic tiebreaker showdown, linking 1620s bookended by 1260s to secure the win. The two-time Olympian carried that momentum onto the Olympic stage in Italy, where he added a bronze medal to his résumé.
Mackay honed his skills at Canada Olympic Park, the same venue where he produced one of the most dominant stretches of his career—back-to-back World Cup victories in 2022 that earned him the FIS Crystal Globe. The Calgary native splits his time between the halfpipe and the physics lab at the University of Calgary, where he is working toward his master’s degree.
