Legend has it that Silvia was actually delivered by the stork. With her free spirit and long legs, this might be true. The Italian, who grew up ski racing, first flew into our hearts in 2015 when she came in second overall in her rookie season on the Freeride World Tour. Known for speed and having a strong technical flow, we do wonder if she might actually be a bird. Since leaving the competitive world, she has begun to teach and coach skiing at her home in the Dolomites, although her focus continues to be seeing as much of the world as she can on skis. Whether flipping off a cliff in the Alps or meditating on a slackline high above hazel trees, Silvia stylishly soars to new heights with every step.
