INDIANAPOLIS — Hoosier Olympian Nick Goepper announced his return to competition.
Goepper, who announced his retirement from full-time competition in January 2023, announced on Facebook Monday his intent to return for the "next chapter" – halfpipe competition.
(NOTE: The video above is from a previous conversation with Goepper about winning a silver medal at the 2022 Winter Olympics.)
"No more retirement. I love this too much," the 29-year-old wrote in the social media post.
A Lawrenceburg native and East Central High School graduate, Goepper has won three Olympic medals in slopestyle skiing during his career: a bronze from the 2014 Sochi Games, a silver from the 2018 Pyeongchang Games, and another silver from the 2022 Beijing Games.
Before the Beijing Games, Goepper said his goal was to complete his collection of medals with gold in China. While that didn't quite happen, he said his future was wide open.
Goepper is also a four-time X-Games champion and two-time World Championships medalist.
