Susan Ada Corrock (born November 30, 1951 in Seattle ) is a former American ski racer.

From the beginning of the 1970s Corrock was one of the best slalom and downhill skiers in the world. Between January 1970 and February 1973 she was able to place in a total of 16 World Cup races in the top ten. Her best results were two fifth places in the slalom from Sestriere (December 1971) and in the downhill from Crystal Mountain (February 1972).

The biggest coup of her career was at the 1972 Winter Olympics in Sapporo , when she surprisingly won the bronze medal in the downhill.
