[1] She grew up in Uniontown, PA where the mountains were only a little bigger than the mogul fields she competed in. [2] She was ranked #90 on the FHM 100 Sexiest Women of 2005.[1] At Winter X Games IX, Leskinen won a bronze medal in the Women's Superpipe.[2] Kristi was the first woman ever to pull a rodeo 720—two rotations, head pointed to the earth. [3] She had a choice to become a pro wakeboarder but she decided to become professional at freestyle skiing. She began to receive sponsors for skiing and instantly knew that skiing was what she wanted to do. [4]
