For students interested in learning about the sport of Nordic Combined (a combination of ski jumping & cross country skiing), please consider trying both cross country and ski jumping (link to UOP reg) programs, or contact Adam Loomis ([email protected]) for program options through Park City Ski and Snowboard. “I found Nordic combined through the YSA and I’m so grateful for the Get Out and Play program for introducing me to my sport. Nordic combined hooked me because it was just so much fun. I got to launch myself off of ski jumps and then go cross country ski, run, and bike with all of my best friends. I love Nordic combined because of all the opportunities it gave me and it helped me become a very well-rounded athlete. I think it’s a great opportunity for all athletes because it allows you to do so many activities as part of training and it helps you develop a very active lifestyle that keeps you healthy, motivated, and active.” -Jared Shumate, USA Nordic National Team Member, 2022 Winter Olympian
