The future is wide open for three-time Olympic medalist Nick Goepper

Goepper won silver in the freeski slopestyle competition in Beijing, the third time he has won a medal in the event.

INDIANAPOLIS — With a third Olympic medal added to his collection, Nick Goepper’s future is still wide open.

Goepper won silver in the freeski slopestyle competition this week in Beijing, his third straight Olympics with a medal in the event.

“It’s amazing. It’s amazing to be on top again, to bring home another medal for USA and bring it back to the Midwest,” Goepper said.

He revealed his new silver medal during a video call with 13Sports manager Dave Calabro on Thursday. He won his first medal, a bronze, at the 2014 Games in Sochi, then followed up with silver four years later in Pyeongchang.

“It’s actually probably my favorite game out of the three different games. It has some really cool inscriptions, like inscriptions on it. I just had a great time here in China, so… big fan,” said Goepper.

The 27-year-old from Lawrenceburg said his phone and social media accounts exploded after finishing second to American Alexander Hall in Beijing.

“The best celebration was laying in my bed after it was all done, going through my texts, Instagram messages and stuff and seeing all the love. Lots of people I haven’t heard from speaking for a while that I had no idea was always in tune with what I was doing, so that was the best,” Goepper said.

He said before the Games that his goal was to supplement his medal collection with gold in China. Although it didn’t quite happen, he said his future was wide open, but a decision was not a priority.

“Honestly, I feel like I have a lot of money and I’m in a toy store with a million different toys to choose from. I’m healthy, I’m sane, I mean , I’m always skiing my best, so… I don’t know what to choose,” he said. “I’m not focused on skiing or anything else, I just live in the moment and we’ll see.”

Whether he decides to retire or chase that gold medal in 2026 in Italy, a plan for when Goepper returns to the United States is already solid.

“I can’t wait to get home to Utah. I have a brand new sled in the driveway and I can’t wait to use it,” he said.
