PROFILE
Natasza Zurek is a quiet competitor who lets her riding do the speaking. She is adept at inverted spins and maintaining amplitude throughout her runs. She has medaled in all three WX SuperPipe events she has entered (bronze in '00 and '02, silver in '01) and she competed in the 2002 Olympics. Small but powerful, Nat has pushed women's pipe riding to new levels.
