Eau Claire native and former E.C. Flying Eagle Adam Loomis had an impressive performance at last weekend's Nordic Combined Continental Cup in Eisenerz, Austria. Loomis finished 24th on Saturday and 19th on Sunday and was the top USA finisher both days.
Here is an excerpt from Loomis' blog posted on the Nordic Combined website:
In terms of results, I had a 24th and 19th place finish, Nick skied into points the first day to finish 29th, and Michael was just a bit out of points in the 30’s. Eisenerz’s hill is pretty hit or miss, too put it one way. Most people don’t love it, but it’d be boring if the hills were all the same. I had some a couple real good jumps in training and fell a short of my high expectations in the comps, but it was still a solid way to start the trip.
