He's traveled the world. He's seen many European countries. He is a Winter Olympian. His name is Ben Loomis and he's from Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Ben is 27 years old. He was named the Nordic Combined Athlete of the Year by the United States Ski and Snowboard Association in 2016. He competed in the 2018 and the 2022 Winter Olympics. But when we talked to Ben Loomis about his most memorable experiences, he brought up his time growing up in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Ben joined WIZM 1410 AM on the phone from Austria.  That is where he is preparing and competing as a ski jumper on the U.S.A team.  He is working toward medals as he prepares for this year's Winter Olympics in Milan, Italy. Ben has lots of fun stories to share.  He did that on La Crosse Talk with Sean Dwyer on Wednesday.
