In the 1990s, he was one of ski jumping’s greatest superstars. Fans packed stadiums from Bergisel to Bischofshofen to watch him fly. It was a dominant period for Austrian ski jumping, with Andi Goldberger winning three FIS World Cup season titles, two Four Hills crowns, 10 World Championship medals including two gold and a pair of Olympic medals.
Today, Goldi remains engaged in the sport as a fan and a television commentator. He recalls fondly those years when he was a fan favorite and the first ski jumper to break the 200 meter barrier sky flying.
In his fun-filled interview with Ticket to Fly host Peter Graves, he waxes nostalgic and also looks to the future. He also takes himself back to Bischofshofen, Austria in January, 1989 when he was there as a 16-year-old watching American Mike Holland soar to a victory in the Four Hills Tournament finale.
