Makenna Griffiths

Whistler, British Columbia, Canada | Active: 2025-present FIS record | Known for: Slopestyle, big air, BC Team, Whistler Freestyle, Vancouver street podium | Current: Active FIS athlete

Whistler Speed Before The Names Were Bigger

The Blackcomb park can change fast when spring light hits the landings and the in-run softens between laps. Makenna Griffiths comes from that Whistler setting: rails, jumps, coastal weather, club training, and a local scene where young riders share the same sessions as older BC names. Her public record is still early, but it already has structure. She is not only a rider appearing in clips. She has an active FIS profile, a BC Team listing, Canada Cup results, Nor-Am starts, and a growing video footprint around the Whistler park scene.

Whistler Freestyle And The BC Team Step

FIS lists Griffiths as a Canadian freestyle skier with Whistler Blackcomb Freestyle Ski Club, born in 2009, active under FIS code 2541295. Freestyle BC lists her hometown as Whistler, BC, her home club as Whistler Freestyle, and 2025 as the year she joined the BC Team. That context matters because Whistler-Blackcomb gives young park athletes a rare development mix: full resort scale, Blackcomb park laps, spring jump lines, club coaching, competition travel and a constant flow of skiers filming in the same terrain.

Sun Peaks Put Two Podiums On The Sheet

Griffiths’ cleanest early FIS weekend came at Sun Peaks in January 2026. On January 17, she placed third in women’s freeski slopestyle, then followed the next day with second in women’s freeski big air. Those results are important because they show both sides of her park profile. Slopestyle asks for rail-to-jump control, run planning and speed management across several features. Big air isolates one or two major moments: pop, rotation control, grab clarity and landing discipline. For a skier born in 2009, placing on both sheets gave her record more substance than a single-format result.

Stoneham Tested The Nor-Am Level

One month later, Griffiths moved into a stronger Nor-Am field at Stoneham Mountain Resort. FIS lists her eighth in women’s freeski slopestyle on February 6, 2026, and fourth in women’s freeski big air on February 7. Those numbers matter more than they may look at first. Stoneham was not just a regional development stop; it was a Nor-Am Cup event with Canadian and North American depth. A fourth in big air kept her close to the podium, while the slopestyle top eight showed that her full-run skiing could hold inside a deeper competitive field.

Whistler Big Air Closed The First Nor-Am Loop

Griffiths returned to her home-mountain environment in April 2026 and placed seventh in women’s Nor-Am big air at Whistler Blackcomb. FIS lists that result on April 4, after a DNS in slopestyle the day before. The seventh-place big-air finish gives the season a useful closing marker: not a podium, but another ranked Nor-Am result on home terrain. For a young Whistler skier, that kind of result matters because it connects training ground, club identity and official FIS record in the same place.

Canadian Nationals And The Zoe Greze-Kozuki Marker

The 2025 Canadian Nationals also placed Griffiths near stronger BC and Canadian names. Pique Newsmagazine reported Zoe Greze-Kozuki winning women’s big air at Whistler, with Makenna Griffiths second and Jillian Mullie third. That result should be read carefully because it is not a World Cup podium, but it is still valuable. It places Griffiths behind Zoe Greze-Kozuki, an older Whistler Freestyle athlete with a deeper FIS record, and in front of another Canadian competitor in a national championship context.

Vancouver Street Lights And Peak Performance

Griffiths also has a street-event result outside the standard FIS course. FREESKIER and Powder both reported that she finished second in the women’s podium at the Peak Performance urban rail jam in Vancouver in December 2025, behind Shonny Charbonneau and ahead of Mili Hofmann. That result adds a different layer to her profile. Street-style rail events reward quick adaptation, composure under lights, feature creativity and the ability to ski outside the protected rhythm of a resort slopestyle course. It also ties her to a growing Canadian urban-event lane rather than only BC Team competition starts.

Whistler Clips With The Local Crew

The video side is still small, but it exists. Newschoolers lists Griffiths in a “whis highlight reel” by mcgeezy, with skiing from Jude Oliver, Reidsmf, Aiden Mulvihill, Floyd Guy, Kai Martin, Tai Who, Adam Kuch, Jesse Downs, Jo Peet and Max Moffat. That kind of credit is useful because Whistler’s park identity is not built only through results. It is also built through shared laps, short edits, local filmers and mixed rosters where younger riders appear beside more established names. Griffiths’ early video presence fits the same pattern as her FIS record: developing, local, and connected to the Sea to Sky park ecosystem.

The Technical Picture Is Still Forming

The verified public sources do not publish a complete trick list, so the technical description should stay grounded in disciplines and results. Griffiths’ record points to slopestyle and big air, with a street-rail event result adding rail credibility. The relevant toolkit is all-around park skiing: rail entries, switch approaches, takeoff speed, grab control, landing discipline, feature linking and enough air awareness to score in big air. Her strongest early pattern is not one signature trick. It is balance across formats: Sun Peaks slopestyle podium, Sun Peaks big-air silver, Stoneham Nor-Am big-air fourth, and Vancouver street podium.

The Current Marker Is Early But Real

Griffiths should be framed as an emerging Canadian park skier, not as a senior World Cup athlete or finished professional profile. The clean facts are active FIS status, Whistler Freestyle roots, BC Team selection in 2025, podium results at Sun Peaks, a near-podium Nor-Am big-air finish at Stoneham, a Whistler Nor-Am big-air result, Canadian Nationals big-air silver, and a Vancouver urban rail-jam podium. The next measurable step is whether those early results turn into deeper Nor-Am podiums, Junior Worlds-level selections and a larger public video archive from the Whistler park scene that is already shaping her skiing.
