This was to be a theme throughout Mikaela's career as, inspired by skier Heidi Voelker's message as a junior skier she added the acronym A.B.F.T.T.B to her helmet: 'Always Be Faster Than The Boys'!Mikaela truly fell in love with skiing when at the age of just six she started training for slalom.

At the height of Mikaela's success and fame her dad died following a tragic accident. Mikaela was devastated and considered giving up skiing.
