Very sad story! I’m really sorry for her husband, kid and parents. I found this awesome video tribute to Sarah today: http://vimeo.com/35364829
Great tribute Chris and Chase. The streets of Squamish and the World are a little bit greyer today without her smile, but her legacy will live on. “Step Up” would be a great name for some sort of charity or campaign in her honour, but is also something we can keep tucked away in the back of our brains for those moments when we feel too chicken to do something important or scary. Life is short – step up! The outpouring of love and thoughts and media coverage for Sarah from all over the world – and far beyond the ski industry – shows just how bright her flame burned. She will be missed. Bluebird skies and endless powder forever, Sarah.
This is such a sad story and I really hope she’s at a place with that endless pow. I never met her, but she always seemed to spread happiness in all she does. My thoughts are with her family, too. Thanks for sharing this article. RIP Sarah.
Thanks for the touching tribute. Sarah is definitely being missed up here in her native Canada. Unfortunately, while her family struggles to deal with their loss and grief, they also have more than $500,000 in medical bills to worry about. If anyone would like to show their support, a donation can be made to help cover the expenses here: http://www2.giveforward.com/sarahburke.html
Powerful message and inspiration. Thanks for sharing, Chase and Chris.
After reading this – I cried. Thank you Sarah for continuing to be an inspiration to all of us even after you’ve passed on. Rest In Peace.
I will never, ever forget to step up. Thank you so much for the kind & heartfelt words, Chase and Chris.
It is heartbreaking to watch the tribute video. What a vibrant person.
So tremendously sad and at the same time so inspiring. Step up everyone – there’s not a moment to loose.
“Step up” – what a positive and inspiring message for everyone. Beautiful tribute, Chase and Chris. RIP, Sarah.
Man, so sad. What I remember about her most only from watching her on tv, was her in increadable smile and magnetic personality. This is truely a profound loss to her sport, and to the world. I truly hope her family is ok.
RIP Sarah
What is with the hyper-sexualized cover photo? Honestly made me sad seeing it as the priority photo choice to represent her inspiring life. Her achievements are incredible, inspiring to both young and old. It is degrading for this influential woman to be summated in this manner don’t you think?
Your words of dedication are beautiful and appreciated Chase and Chris, I just wish the featured photo was one that represented her life’s achievements rather than T&A.
I have to agree. I have been a fan of Sarah’s for a while and it is always and will continue to be disturbing to see sexualized portrayals of women in sports. As a culture, we seem to only accept and legitimize women as athletes through their sexuality rather than by thier talent and accomplishments.
I greatly appreciate this tribute to her life and work, but it is upsetting that even in a tribute, it is her sexauality that is given graphical dominance. What does this say to other young, aspiring female athletes who hold up Sarah as a role model?
Really amazing tribute – Canada and the world mourns the loss of Sarah … such a talent and loved by so many
Canada lost her angel…..
What a shock. Carol and I don’t really follow winter sports, but we followed Sarah. A real tragedy.
Sarah’s publicist has just release this information regarding her medical bills through the Canadian Freestyle Ski Association:
“This statement is to clarify inaccurate information reported in the press regarding expenses related to Sarah Burke’s hospitalization and care.
The Burke family has not yet received a hospital bill from the University of Utah. Based on early estimates, total charges for Sarah’s care are expected to be approximately $200,000. Once charges are finalized, the University will work with Health Canada to determine what type of coverage may be available and what their contribution will be, as Sarah is a Canadian citizen.
The family continues to be extremely grateful for the outpouring of support and messages honoring Sarah and the generous contributions that have been made via http://www2.giveforward.com/sarahburke.html and http://www.wepay.com/donations/sarah-burke. Because of the donations in the last day, it is now clear that Sarah’s family will not have any financial burden related to her care. Further contributions will be used to establish a foundation to honor Sarah’s legacy and promote the ideals she valued and embodied.”
The entire press release is here: http://freestyleski.com/wp/2012/01/clarification-from-sarah-burkes-publicist-regarding-medical-expenses/
Thanks for posting Andrew.
What an incredible tribute to an incredible woman. Seriously moved by this Chase.
Don’t know what else to say…I’m stumped!
Regards,
Glyn
RIP Sarah.
she lived a life worth living for, she did what she loved and loved what she did. sometimes it ends much quicker than one hopes but knowing that she had a great live i think helps.
x-treme sports are called x-treme as they are dangerous and there is a risk, even for the best. i hear the shocking news that BASE jumper jeb corliss nearly had a fatal accident this week and even though you know it could happen any time they participate in the sport it is always a shock.
but i think her words are a message to all… step up, do what you love and you will do it well… you never know what will happen tomorrow

Honestly, before today I had never heard of Sarah Burke. I wish I had. Even though I never had the opportunity to meet Sarah, her words, “step up” have touched me in the few short minutes I have been reading about her. Even in death, she has touched the heart of a stranger.
Such a sad loss not only to the world of skiing but to the world in general. My prayers go out to her husband and kids, her family and to those of you who Sarah’s life so lovingly touched. May God bless your relationships with others in the same way He blessed you with your relationship with Sarah.
Wonderful words Chase for a wonderful talent taken all too soon.
Live life, love life and “step up.”
Ski in peace.
What a sad story, I can’t even begin to realize how awful the family must feel!!
Graceful words Chris!
My deepest condolences to her family. A great loss in the sports world
Is it really so sad that Sarah died doing what she loved? Her death is very sad and the quote from Christopher saying, “She was incredibly talented and fearless.,” reminds of my favourite athlete who also died doing what he loved, the Late, Great Ayrton Senna, once said, http://bit.ly/19qzNs “If you no longer go for a gap that exists, you are no longer a racing driver…” Aryton had many great quotes, http://bit.ly/yPfrKp but “going for it” is what makes the best, THE BEST!!!
I’m sure that Sarah lived with death or the thought of death, more than anyone will ever know. Much like Aryton, she cheated death so many times that she may have known that it was inevitable, yet she continued to live on the edge of it and thrive! God bless Sarah and all of the fearless athletes that don’t know of any other way to perform, except to go for it!
I hadn’t heard of her before, but reading this and watching the video on vimeo, she seems to have been a great woman. A very good spirit and a lot of talent. That’s a beautiful combination.
May she rest in peace.
Wow, I’m completely chocked up, a beautiful woman in all aspects, an incredible tribute and memory of her. The love, the impact and importance of life through such a tragedy is something to hold onto for life. I’m touched and inspired, to never lose sight of how beautiful the people and this life we have actually is. My sincere sympathies to her husband, family and those that knew her personally, Thank you for sharing this touching tribute to Sarah.
Don’t follow skiing so never really heard of her but that is an inspirational tribute. RIP and Thankyou.
Im going snowboarding this month and I just want to say Sarah has been an insperation no matter what anyone says. I just want to she was and will remain an amazing person all I have to say is I believe ! Thanks Sarah
