Cara Dunne-Yates Biography

Cara Dunne-Yates is one of the most popular and richest Medalist who was born on March 17, 1970 in United States, United States.

In 1976, when Dunne-Yates was six, her mother Mary Zabelski introduced her to alpine skiing, as part of a Chicago-based group, The American Blind Ski Association (ABSF). Eventually, Dunne-Yates and her soon-to-be-stepfather trained with ABSF at local ski areas as part of inter-club races. In 1979, after two seasons of skiing for fun as a family activity, she entered her first ski race. With a disastrous beginning, Dunne-Yates and her ski coach/guide and stepfather developed a new guiding technique, where the skier would follow the guide – the “front guiding” technique, never before demonstrated in blind ski racing. After numerous inter-club races with blind skiers from groups from Wisconsin and Michigan, Dunne-Yates’ technique and confidence as a ski racer, improved. In 1982, she and her stepfather prepared for and competed in the first ever U.S. Blind National Alpine Championships; she won the gold medal in giant slalom. At age 11, she competed in the adult women’s category, demonstrating for the first time the front guiding technique. She was selected as the team’s youngest member. She competed with the U.S. Paralympic Alpine Ski Team (1982 through 1989)and medalled in world championship events in Switzerland, Canada, Austria, and Sweden. Throughout her skiing career, Dunne-Yates was exclusively coached and guided by her stepfather, Richard Zabelski.

1979 developed and pioneered the “Front Guiding” technique, where the skier is guided through the sounds of the guides skis and verbal commands from the front of the visually impaired skier.
