#26 - Mac Bohonnon - Current Olympic Ariel Ski Jumper Talks Dedication and How He’s Been Preparing for Pyeongchang Since Age 12
Skiing before he turned two years old, Mac Bohonnon is right at home on the snow. Bohonnon showed strong promise in his first seasons on the U.S. Ski Team. In the 2014 season, when he earned a second-place finish in Val St. Come. That game-changing result punched his ticket to the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, Russia. Competing against athletes nearly twice his age, Bohonnon produced stellar jump after jump and earned a fifth-place finish at his first Olympic berth–at only 19 years old. Building off his Olympic success, Bohonnon has claimed a total of nine World Cup podium finishes since the 2014 season. His consistent jumping and results landed him at the top of the aerial World Cup rankings at the end of the 2015 season.
