Nick Johnson, Assistant Coach
My passion for the sport was fostered by some of the current coaches Tony Geye, Chris Broz, Tom Brisson, and the late Jack Broz. I joined the club in 1997. I was not a gifted jumper, but with the right mentors in my corner I competed in two junior nationals, dozens of FIS cups and continental cups across the USA, Canada, and Europe. I also spent summers training with the national team in Park City, UT, Lake Placid, NY, and one summer traveling with the Polish ski team based out of Zakopane, Poland.
I was 8th in the nation leading up to the 2010 Olympics and started coaching when I was still an avid ski jumper myself. I love everything about the sport and the Minneapolis Ski Club. It gave me the confidence to reach for more in life.
