Megan Nick (born July 9, 1996) is an American freestyle skier specializing in aerials. She competed at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, where she won the bronze medal in aerials.[1][2][3]
Nick went through the qualification, and in Final 1, where only six athletes qualify for Final 2, she was fifth. In Final 2, her routine was easier than that of the other athletes; in particular, she was the only athlete who did not perform a triple backflip, but she did not make mistakes, whereas many of her competitors did with their landing. NBC sports called her a "surprising medalist".[1]
Personal life
[edit | edit source]Nick attended high school at Champlain Valley Union High School.[4] She grew up competing in gymnastics before transitioning into aerials after attending the U.S. team’s aerial skiing Talent ID camp in Lake Placid during her final year of high school.[5][6]
