Who is David Duncan?

Dave Duncan is a World Cup freestyle skier. Duncan is currently a member of the Canadian National Ski Cross Team.

Duncan had a successful and breakout season during the 2009–10 Freestyle Skiing World Cup. Duncan earned his first career World Cup top ten finish, placing 9th at the World Cup in Branaes, Sweden. David Duncan needed to finish 5th or better at the January 24, Lake Placid ski-cross event to qualify for the Olympics. In the final Duncan won bronze thereby qualifying him for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. Alongside his bronze at Lake Placid Duncan also won a bronze medal in St. Johann in Tirol/Oberndorf, Austria on January 5.

Besides being a freestyle skier David Duncan is an aspiring helicopter pilot, Duncan also graduated from the University of Alaska after four years of schooling. He is sponsored by Stoeckli, POC, Osisko, Boler MTN and Mount 7 Lodges.

During a training run at the 2010 Winter Olympics, Dave broke his collarbone and therefore will not be able to compete. Taking his place was supposed to be Brady Leman of Calgary, Alberta. However, Leman aggravated a broken tibia he suffered last year and will also no longer compete.
