Career

Jasmin Taylor came to the British Ski Academy at the age of 12 to compete as a ski racer. At the age of 15 she became the youngest British ski cross champion. A few years later she switched to telemark sport. At the end of the season she made her debut in the Telemark World Cup on March 11, 2011 in Hafjell and was 21st in the giant slalom. She was 33rd in the overall World Cup, 34th in the Classic, 34th in the Classic Sprint and 28th in the Giant Slalom at her first Junior World Championship in 2011 in Hafjell she was tenth in the giant slalom, 11th in the Classic Sprint and 13th in the Classic. In the 2012 Telemark season , she was able to improve her results compared to the previous year. Her best results were ninth in both the Vallée de Chamonix and Espot in the Classic. She was 15th in the overall World Cup, 14th in the Classic, 13th in the Classic Sprint and 15th in the parallel sprint. At her second Junior World Cup in 2012 in Espot, she won the bronze medal in the parallel sprint . She was fourth in the Classic and sixth in the Classic Sprint. She only started in the middle of the 2013 season in Vallée de Chamonix. The season was no worse than the previous one, she was 11th in the overall World Cup, 12th in the Classic, 13th in the Classic Sprint and eighth in the parallel sprint. The 2013 Junior World Championship went very well, as it came in fifth in the Classic Sprint and fourth in the Classic. During her first participation in the 2013 World Championships in Espot, Spain, she did not finish in the Classic, in the parallel sprint she came in fifth and in the Classic Sprint in 11th place.

Right at the beginning of the 2013/14 season she finished second in the parallel sprint in Hintertux . For the rest of the season she reached places in the top ten. After the race in Steamboat Springs she ended the season because she tore a ligament during telemark training in Les Houches in early March . She had worked hard over the summer and healed her injury so that she can start again in the 2014/15 World Cup. She was 7th in the overall World Cup, 12th in the Classic, sixth in the Classic Sprint and fifth in the parallel sprint. She won four medals at the British Telemark Championships in 2014. At the beginning of the 2014/15 season , like the Swede Olle Collberg in Hintertux, she had her best result of the season with fourth place. In the further course of the season she was able to keep up with the leaders and so mostly came fifth. In the overall World Cup ranking, she finished eighth, in the Classic on the eleventh, in the Classic Sprint on the eighth and in the parallel sprint on the ninth place. At her second World Championship in 2015 in Steamboat Springs, she won the bronze medal in the first race, the other race results were ninth and seventh.
