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 USA Nordic 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.
