Meyer 3rd in national ski event

Harry Meyer, 13, finished third overall at the USASA National Championhip in Colorado recently.

His best finish was a second place in the rail jam and a third in the slopestyle. He also took seventh in skicross. Unfortunately, Meyer fell twice going for big air in the halfpipe.
