biography

From February 2005, at the age of 13, Dufour-Lapointe took part in mogul competitions in the Nor-Am Cup, the North American continental championship. She achieved 15th place as the best result in her first season, and 4th place in her second 2005/06 season. At the Junior World Championships in Airolo in 2007 , she won gold in the dual moguls and bronze in the moguls discipline.

Dufour-Lapointe made her debut in the World Cup on December 13, 2007, when he was tenth in the Mughal competition in Tignes . The best results in her first 2007/08 World Cup season were two fifth places. After three top 10 placements in the World Cup, she did not get past a 15th place at the 2009 World Championships in Inawashiro . Shortly thereafter, however, on March 18, 2009 in La Plagne , she achieved her first podium finish, finishing third in the Moguls competition. In the 2009/10 season she regularly achieved placements in the top ten, but was never on the podium. At the 2010 Winter Olympics , she was fifth.

Dufour-Lapointe achieved second and third place in the 2010/11 season . At the 2011 World Championships in Deer Valley , she won the silver medal in the Dual Moguls. In the 2011/12 World Cup winter she was once again second and third, in the 2012/13 World Cup winter she was second and twice third. Somewhat surprisingly, she won the Dual Moguls gold medal at the 2013 World Championships in Voss . With her first World Cup victory in Val Saint-Côme on January 19, 2014, as well as three second and two third places, she placed third in the Aerials World Cup in the 2013/14 season . At the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi , she won the silver medal, behind her sister Justine.

In the 2014/15 World Cup season , Dufour-Lapointe finished second four times and third once, which again resulted in third place in the discipline ranking. On Kreischberg , she just missed a medal win at the 2015 World Championships as fourth in the dual moguls competition. In the 2015/16 World Cup season , she excelled with consistently good performances: She won in Calgary and came second twice and third three times. With that she won the Aerials discipline by a narrow margin over her sister Justine. She could not quite maintain this level in the 2016/17 World Cup season , although two third places resulted. At the season highlight, the 2017 World Championships in the Sierra Nevada , she finished 9th (Moguls) and 11th (Dual Moguls).
