Biography

Worthington was born in 1969 in Minneapolis, and began skiing at the age of two.[2][4] His great-grandfather, Harry, competed in the men's long jump at the 1912 Summer Olympics in Stockholm.[5] After moving to Winter Park, Colorado, Worthington took part in his first freestyle skiing competition when he was 14 years old.[2] In 1986, he was the World Junior Champion in the aerials, winning the US title the next year.[2]

From 1992 to 1995, Worthington was named the Freestyle Skier of the Year by Ski Racing magazine,[1] and in 1993, he was also named the International Skier of the Year.[1] Worthington won a total of 39 World Cup events, and finished on the podium 79 times during his career.[1][2] At the 1995 FIS Freestyle World Ski Championships, he was the World Champion in both the aerials and combined events, the first time one person had held both titles.[1][2]

Worthington took part in freestyle skiing as a demonstration event at the 1992 Winter Olympics.[2] At the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, Worthington competed in the men's moguls and the men's aerials,[6] with a best placed finish of fifth in the aerials event.[7][8] Just prior to the 1994 Winter Olympics, Worthington injured his right knee in training.[9]

Worthington retired from the sport in 1997, due to vertigo,[2][10] becoming a sports commentator.[1][11] He also opened his own television production company.[1] He was inducted into the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Hall of Fame in 2006.[2][12]
