Erik Arvidsson's Olympic Skiing Dream
Description
Under most circumstances, Erik Arvidsson wouldn’t have put on his skis and started racing so soon after undergoing ACL surgery.
But the opportunity to secure a coveted spot on the U.S. Olympic team only comes around every four years.
Less than 13 months after having a second operation to address a major knee injury, Arvidsson is closing in on a dream.
Ahead of a race that will dictate whether or not he will travel to Italy next month, Arvidsson joined Section 415 host Kerry Crowley to discuss his journey to this moment.
