Catching some air at Norge's summer tourney
FOX RIVER GROVE – Michael Glasder pumped his fist after landing a 74-meter jump on the K-70 Hill at Norge Ski Club.
The 23-year-old Cary native had a lower speed on the ramp than a previous jump, but he came close to matching an earlier distance and stuck a better landing.
His jumps were part of the 27th annual Norge Summer Ski Jump. Some of the ski jumpers, including Glasder, used the event to earn points toward a chance at trying out for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.
