Ski jumping took hold in the U.S. 100 years ago, when Norwegians introduced the sport here. You go down a steep ramp at 50 miles an hour, jump off into the wind, fly for around 10 seconds, and land 2-3 football fields farther away. It's not for the meek.

In this episode, we jump into the incredible journey of Anna Hoffmann, who clipped into her first skis at just 2 years oldand never looked back. From snowy slopes to the grand stage of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, Anna's path was anything but smooth.Battling through challenging injuries, breaking barriers as a female in a male-dominated sport, and navigating the relentless mental and physical demands of elite competition, Anna's story is one of resilience, passion, and fearless determination.Join us as we explore how a young girl with big dreams climbed her way to the top—jump by jump, fall by fall, and triumph by triumph.

The Big Nansen Ski JumpRegion: Berlin, The Great North WoodsThe Nansen Ski Club was founded in 1872 and is one of the oldest ski clubs in the United States. The club is named after Fridtjof Nansen, a Norwegian explorer, scientist, and humanitarian. Between 1936-1938, the Big Nansen was the world's tallest ski jump and was the site of the first ever ski jumping Olympic trials in 1938 and the FIS World Championships in 1939 which attracted more than 25,000 spectators who traveled to the Great North Woods navigating small windy backroads and snow trains. More than 87 radio stations broadcasted the event live. The jump eventually hosted four U.S. National Ski Jumping Championships, a North American Championship, Eastern Championships, and numerous international competitions before holding its last event in March of 1985.In 2017, former World Champion ski jumper Sarah Hendrickson, who has family in Plymouth, NH, decided to join the effort to revive the Big Nansen. She convinced her sponsor, Red Bull Energy Drink, to re-deck the jump for one “Last Leap.” On the morning of March 4th, 2017, Hendrickson launched off of the Big Nansen, symbolizing the beginning of a new era for the jump. Even now, with restorative efforts, enthusiasts say the jump is one of the scariest they've ever experienced—it sways with the wind!Read more about Hendrickson's jumpIn this episode of the 603podcast, Dan Egan sits down with guest Scott Halvorson to discuss the history and culture of the Big Nansen Ski Jump. Scott Halvorson is a member and the treasurer of the Friends of the Nansen Ski Jump Committee.

Hello again, Everyone! In this week's episode of the show, we talk about Sports in the In Death World! This was actually a really fun topic, even for someone like AJ who doesn't sports! We start out discussing the Olympics in the future and what games would Eve and Roarke go see if they attended the games in 2020/2022/2024. For winter sports, we decided Eve and Roarke would stick to downhill Skiing, Ski Jumping, Snowboarding, the Biathalon and those sorts of snow sports. But we don't think they would be Ice Skating people or Curling, though we would love to see Eve watching curling and trying to figure out what the hell kind of sport is that? For summer sports, we generally agreed that any combat/fighting sports like boxing or karate would be a given, as well as Baseball, Basketball, and probably Rugby and Soccer. And of course any of the shooting sports or Archery. Swimming and Diving might also be on their itinerary. Jen thinks they would go see Gymnastics, and AJ thinks they would like Fencing. Roarke, being the perv that he is would convince Eve to watch Women's Beach Volleyball. We then talk about Arena Ball vs Football, and have a little off topic discussion about head injuries in Football. Last we talk about Eve's main sport, Baseball and the many baseball references in this series. As a bonus, AJ mentions an unconventional Summerset fancasting pick, and we're making somewhat of a game out of it. See the attached photo and let us know who you think it might be! Hope you enjoy this Episode!

Sean is a 21 year old savage ski racer, ski jumper, and ski instructor. Sean did a wonderful job taking us into his world of ski jumping which he competed in at the national level and trained internationally. He attended the powerhouse ski jumping high school in the nation. Most of his competition was done from 65 m towers where jumpers reached speeds of 75 mph in a matter of seconds, but he has also jumped 90 and 120 m towers. Sean's message- wear a helmet on the mountain!! Thanks for joining the show Sean and thank you for the cool lesson in ski jumping! Enjoy
