What does it take to be an Olympic freestyle skier?
Kate Summerhayes and Murray Buchan are Great Britain medal hopefuls heading to next year's winter Olympics to compete in the freestyle and halfpipe skiing events.
Kate told 5 live Breakfast about the close bond within the team:
“I met Murray when I was ten years-old so we’ve grown up together. [The team] is very much family based.
“It’s really nice to travel with people you’ve spent your whole life with,” she added.
The pair will be part of the 60-strong Great Britain team that will compete at the next year’s winter games in Pyong Chang, South Korea.
