Jon Anders Olsson (born 17 August 1982) is a professional freeskier and alpine ski racer from Sweden. Born in Mora, Olsson started his career as a ski racer but at age 16 he switched his race skis for twin tips and quit ski racing. Eight years later, after a 50 000 SEK (US$5826.22) bet with fellow skier Jens Byggmark, Olsson started ski racing again with the goal of the bets being to make it to the Olympics in 2014. He now competes in both freestyle and ski racing. Olsson is known for his invention of several new double flips, including a D-spin 720 into a flatspin 540 (DJ flip), a switch double rodeo 1080 (hexo flip), a double flatspin 900 (kangaroo flip), and a switch cork 720 to flatspin 540 (the tornado).
Since 2005 Olsson has hosted the big air event Jon Olsson Invitational, also known as JOI. In 2007 the event was voted best big air event by freeskier magazine. From 2007 to 2010 he also hosted Jon Olsson Super Sessions (JOSS), a freeskiing film contest that takes place in Åre, Sweden. The event consisted of teams of skiers skiing for approximately two weeks with a film crew and creating a short ski film. Olsson made his debut in the Alpine Skiing World Cup in Val-d'Isère in December 2010, as part of a plan to make the Swedish alpine ski team at the 2014 Winter Olympics. Hans Olsson, a Swedish alpine skier specialising in the speed events, is Jon Olsson’s brother.[1]
Olsson began dating Janni Delér in 2012. They became engaged in November 2017,[2] and were married in June 2018 in Marbella.[3] The couple had a child named Leon in November 2019.[4] In November 2020, the couple announced they were expecting their second child.[5] Their daughter, Leia,[6] was born in March 2021.[7] They announced their separation in August 2022. [8]
Social media influencer
Olsson shares his life through social media, documenting his day-to-day adventures through YouTube vlogs. In 2018, he donated €1,000 to charity for every vlog that was off schedule.[citation needed] In his vlogs, Olsson travels the world with his wife and his cameraman-editor Benjamin Ortega. On 4 January 2018, Jon Olsson Delér's YouTube page and Instagram page reached 1 million subscribers.[citation needed] He started his own bag company, called Douchebags, and in 2018, he became the creative director of the company.[citation needed] He also co-founded and runs a clothing company known as C'est Normal.[citation needed]
Competitions
Olsson Delér holds eleven Winter X-Games podiums.[1] He has also won many other events including big air at Winter X-Games 08, The US Free Skiing Open in Vail, The Red Bull Big Air in Åre, Scandinavian Big Mountain Championships in Riksgränsen and the World Superpipe Championships in Whistler BC.[citation needed] Since Olsson Delér's return to alpine ski racing in 2008 while training with coach, Guenther Birgmann at the Treble Cone Race Academy, he has won five FIS gs ski racers, with a ten-point fis result at Coronet Peak at the New Zealand National Championships.[citation needed]

Now when it has sunk in for us both we though it was time to share it with everyone here that has been a part of our journey. ❤️ We have had 11 amazing years together. Lots of adventures, lots of love, lots of happy and tough times, and we created two amazing kids that we love more than life. We will always love each other - just in a different way. We've grown apart and we believe that all relationships can change, so instead of being a couple we will be a family with a lot of love in a different way. 🥰 We will always be best friends and have each other as a big part of our lives. ❤️ Nothing else has happened, so no need to speculate. ☺️ We made this decision together a while ago, and it feels the best for us even if it's of course is super tough. Much love from us ❤️"". Instagram. Retrieved 2022-08-21.
