The author Dirk Thiele:
He is "the voice of ski jumping" in Switzerland, Austria and Germany. He is very popular with the viewers and athletes due to his frank and distinctive commentaries. Besides ski jumping he comments on athletics, handball and cross-country skiing for EUROSPORT, Europe’s biggest sports channel. In 2008 he won the German Television Award and was nominated 2005 for the prestigious Grimme-Prize. In 2003 he received the „FIS Award" for his journalistic achievements in Nordic Sports.
The expert Michael Uhrmann:
He once soared up to 226.5 meters and he knows ski jumping from A to Z. Michael Uhrmann is a three time Junior World Champion and is one of the best ski jumpers in the World Cup since many years. In 2001 he won the World Champion title and had his biggest success when he became Olympic Champion with the German Team 2002 in Salt Lake City.
Ski Jumping - Fascination für millions of television viewers and a spectacular sport! A must-have book for every skijumping-fan: History-Ski Jumping-Skiflying-Material and 20 Stars of Ski Jumping with fullpage photos and personal stories by Dirk Thiele in his distinctive style.
It is not a "How to do" book - who wants to learn ski jumping anyway, lol, but rather a look behind the scenes with very interesting stories.
