Since she followed her brother off a ski jump at age six, world champion and Olympian Sarah Hendrickson's life has revolved around her passion for ski jumping. In this insightful interview with Ticket to Fly host Peter Graves, Hendrickson shares the highs and the lows of a career that put her at the pinnacle of the sport as she advocated for women's ski jumping, found success at the highest level and is now continuing to give back.
The explosiveness of ski jumping, with athletes launching off a towering scaffold and soaring like a bird through the air. The aerobic energy of cross country skiing, with skiers powering up steep hills and accelerating on thin edge down sweeping turns in a head-to-head battle to the finish line. This is Ticket to Fly, the international ski jumping and nordic combined podcast. Each episode will take you inside the international world of ski jumping and nordic combined, bringing you into the start house and up close with the stars of the sport, hosted by noted nordic commentator Peter Graves.
