Bella Bradley

Hi, I’m Bella Bradley, and I’ve been skiing since I was just 2 years old. Ever since I can remember, I’ve been totally obsessed with the snow and mountains. I was born in Auckland, New Zealand, and I started racing at Snow Planet, which is this super cool indoor ski slope in Auckland. My family and I would travel back and forth between Auckland and Queenstown & Wanaka during the winter, and I've also attended camps in North America where I trained at Panorama, Sugar Bowl, and Beaver Creek. For the past couple of years, I've been training in Wanaka and then at HPC in Leogang, Austria. But this year, we had our first year at Apex2100, which is an English academy in Tignes, France. At Apex, I got to compete in the English, GB, and French race series. I won a bunch of races in the French series and made it to the finals, but sadly they were cancelled due to the weather. My biggest achievement this season was winning the overall GB British Championship for U12 girls. I’m heading back to Apex2100 in September, where I’ll be based year-round, racing, and going to school, and I seriously can’t wait!
