BIO
American slopestyle freeskier, Nick Goepper medaled at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, where freeskiing made its Olympic debut and won the Silver medal at the 2018 Winter Olympic Games becoming the first Slopestyle skier to have won two Olympic medals.
Nick grew up in Lawrenceburg, a small town in Southern Indiana. He started skiing at the age of five at a small resort nearby, Perfect North, a place Goepper describes as “the size of your typical bunny hill at any resort out West.” The local 300-foot ski hills had terrain parks and a grassroots freestyle scene. The moment he learned to “catch air” on his skis he fell in love with the sport and it has been his number one passion ever since.
On a visit to an action sports camp in Ohio when Nick was 15, he caught the attention of a veteran in the ski industry. Within a few months, Nick was moving out West to attend the action sports school Windells Academy, on a full-ride athletic and academic scholarship with year-round access to training and legendary freeride coach, Mike Hanley. This full time coaching and training was the opportunity of a lifetime for Goepper. Nick’s family remained in Indiana. Nick flourished to the top of the sport and quickly became known globally.
Nick has taken home a total of five X-Games medals, two Olympic medals (Silver and Bronze), along with a plethora of national and international podiums finishes.
When not on the slopes, Nick’s cross training include skateboarding, biking, surfing, and swimming. He also enjoys speaking to school groups and visiting children’s hospitals and bringing awareness to the importance of mental health. Most recently, he married his longtime girlfriend, Lizzy Braun.
