Stefan Read: NH Individual Ski Jumping

Stefan Read

Stefan Read is about to jump headfirst into Olympic competition! Before the Opening Ceremonies even begin, Stefan will be taking a leap of faith towards a medal in Individual Ski Jumping. Read is the most experienced competitor on the men’s ski jumping team, the team leader, it’s only Olympic veteran, and he’s only 22 years old! Skiing runs in the Read family – his uncle Ken is a former member of the “Crazy Canucks”, the famous Canadian alpine ski team. Good luck Stefan – with you on the team, Canada’s medal chances are soaring!
