Mike Wilson (skier)
Michael David Wilson (born February 16, 1986) is an American professional freeskier. Wilson is recognized as one of the leaders of the freeskiing movement, and is known for pushing the limits by hitting bigger jumps and doing bigger rotations than almost anybody else. In 2004, Wilson introduced the first off axis double-flipping rotation to skiing (the "Wilsonflip"), revolutionizing freeskiing competition. Personal
Born in South Londonderry, Vermont to Beverly and David (Tuck), Mike is the middle of 3 children. He has an older sister Ashley, and a younger sister Robin. Mike spent his winters in middle school being homeschooled by his parents so he could ski. He attended high school in Manchester, Vermont for one year before transferring to The Winter Sports School in Park City, Utah. He graduated from high school in 2003, taking just longer than 3 years.
