heywoodu 13,565 Posted June 3, 2021 Author #6652 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Noriaki Kasai (ski jumping), sort of. Not too much anymore in terms of international competitions, sadly Let's see if we can find more who started not in the 90's, but in the 80's If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
