Update from Dave Jarrett: NC Head Coach

  It was an historic weekend here in Lake Placid, New York. The US Nordic Combined and Ski Jumping National Championships were held in October. For the first time the National Championships were contested on plastic jumping and with a rollerski race to decide the winner. The 2009 US Nordic Combined champion is Johnny Spillane, second place was Billy Demong, and third place was Todd Lodwick. This was Johnny’s first career national championship victory. In the Ski Jumping competition, Anders Johnson was victorious followed by Johnny Spillane in second and Billy Demong in third. In the Women’s Class Lindsey Van was victorious and was followed by Jessica Jerome and Alissa Johnson.

On Sunday we competed in a SuperTour ski jumping event where Anders was again victorious. Eric Camerota had a great day on the hill and finished second followed by Nick Alexander in third. Check results here: http://skijumpeast.com/results/ussa-09/rslt09c.htm#training

Overall, it was a great weekend for competitions. The weather was great and we got a great crowd both days. Furthermore, it is great to see what Jochen has done with the Project X boys. They all have been posting very encouraging results in Europe and it will only help both sports raise the bar. Congrats boys.

This year the start was moved down to Santa’s Workshop, 1.5 miles below the Whiteface Toll House. Racers continued for 4.5 miles, finishing 3 miles up the Whiteface Toll Road. We could not finish at the Whiteface Castle due to a slick road with snow. Winter is on its’ way!

Thanks to all for a great event and to the Olympic Regional Development Authority for use of the road.
