FIS Competition History

Pete has only to look back to the 2010 Olympic Winter Games to find his motivation---for his Olympic performances had all of America cheering.

Pete has been jumping for 13 seasons. He cut his ski jumping teeth working with legendary trainer Larry Stone on the 1980 Olympic Ski jumps in Lake Placid, and he continues to be a member of the Lake Placid Ski Club and NYSEF.

“I hope to better my jumping technique, which will help me to achieve better results,” says Frenette. He also says he loves ski jumping because ”the feeling of flight is so amazing.”

He knows progress in this sport takes time. USA Ski Jumping coach Casey Colby knows Frenette has what it takes, “he’s a natural talent, you could see that at the Olympics in Whistler, so many technique elements are just intuitive for him. With time, he could be great and he's started off really well at Stams with a 10th place." He has all the tools.

Pete is a man on a mission, who is hoping to take another big leap forward for this 2013 ski season. In fact, the new season has started well for Frenette as he placed an impressive 10th place in a COC, on June 30, 2012, in Stams, Austria. Frenette showed he means business with a strong 11th place at a COC in Engleberg, SUI in December, 2012 he also broke into coveted World Cup points on January 19, 2013 by placing 25th at a World Cup in Sapporo, JPN.

Count the 20 year-old as one who will follow closely ever NY Jets game with pride.
