Freestyle aerial skier Laura Peel
"I'm very proud of everything that I've done," said the 32-year-old skier, who is set for her third Olympics.
"Ultimately, it's going to come down to the competition," Peel said, adding that she has a "brilliant" team for the events.
She said there was plenty of competition from rivals including those from Ukraine and Belarus.
"Compared to previous Olympics there is a little more pressure but that is a privilege … Certainly can't get complacent," she said.
The freestyle skiing aerial competition starts on Feb. 10.
