Errata for Longboards to Olympics: A Century of Tahoe Winter Sports

Significant effort was made to make Longboards to Olympics as accurate as possible, however, as with most projects that encompass this much historical material, errors can and do occur. This errata webpage will be continually updated with any corrections or clarifications as they arise. These issues will be corrected for the second print edition and the digital version. I apologize in advance for any consternation that these errors may cause.

Page 110: In 1935, Austrian racer Hannes Schroll told American reporters that he had won "more than 100 international ski titles in Europe," but in his article on Schroll in the December 2009 issue of Skiing Heritage Magazine, ski historian Morten Lund wrote "There were hardly enough such races back then to let anyone win quite that many." According to Schroll's good friend Bill Klein, the boast was just "Hannes being Hannes."

Page 228: The following sentence is correct, but redundant from page 223. "Cushing's Squaw Valley operation was on the brink of financial ruin when he decided to gamble $40,000 in his bid to host the Winter Games, but he knew that if he was successful, the state of California would guarantee the financial backing needed to develop the resort he had always dreamed of."

Page 268: Photo caption: Hockey teams are Sweden and U.S.A. Not Canada.

Page 271: Photo caption: Sweden versus U.S.A. Not Canada.
