Please join us in congratulating NASJA board member John W. Lundin, who has been voted into the All Americans Ski Jumping Hall of Fame and Museum!
John will be inducted this August in Red Wing, Minnesota ā and what makes this recognition especially meaningful is that he is being honored as a historian, not an athlete. His work has helped preserve and share the story of ski jumpingās deep roots in America, Norwegian-American identity, and the growth of skiing across the West.
John is the author of Ski Jumping in Washington State: A Nordic Tradition, which accompanied two major ski jumping exhibits he helped create: āSublime Sights: Ski Jumping and Nordic Americaā at Seattleās National Nordic Museum and āSkiers in Flight: Sun Valleyās Ski Jumping Rootsā at the Sun Valley History Museum.
His writing, research, exhibits, and years of work preserving ski jumping history have helped ensure this important part of skiingās past is not forgotten.

Preservation and display of historical information about the sport of ski jumping in the United States from 1880s to present.
