Who I am

My name is Lucas Wong, a skiier from Hong Kong. Skiing has always been my greatest passion - it ignites a fire within me, a blend of personal thrill and fierce competition. I began this exhilarating journey at just three years old and competed since twelve, each run feeling like a dance with the mountain where my skills shine. 

Yet being on the Hong Kong China Team and Vice Captain of the Harrow Team has transformed this solitary pursuit into something greater. It is not just about personal bests; it’s about representing my country alongside dedicated teammates who share my passion. 

Together we push each other to strive, celebrate victories, and learn from DNF’s as one team - this is why I love the sport and aspire to compete at the collegiate level.
