![]() BIOGRAPHY The Olympic season didn't go as planned with Chodounsky missing out on a spot in Whistler, but he certainly made up for that in 2011 by landing top 25 finishes in three of the biggest slalom races on the World Cup tour and a ticket to the big show – the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships. A late season training crash resulted in a ski to the leg and stitches slowing Chodounsky considerably, but his earlier results rebooted him to a spot on the U.S. Ski Team for 2012 and kept the Olympic dream alive. DAVID SAYS: "The season as a whole was amazing, however, and a real break-through for me. Coming off of a rougher year last year and getting cut from the team to coming right back and qualifying off the bat, making second runs in four World Cups, and representing the U.S. in the Alpine World Championships - very cool."
