SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – In a groundbreaking achievement that has captured the attention of the extreme sports community, South Lake Tahoe area resident Jason Lindstrom made history this week by becoming the first person to successfully navigate Kirkwood Resort’s infamous “Once Is Enough” run on a ski bike.
The feat, accomplished on Monday, April 13, represents a significant milestone in both ski biking and extreme mountain sports. “Once Is Enough” has earned its ominous name through years of challenging even the most experienced skiers and snowboarders with its steep terrain and technical demands.
Breaking New Ground at 50
What makes Lindstrom’s accomplishment particularly remarkable is not just the technical difficulty of the run, but that he achieved this milestone at age 50 – an age when many athletes are stepping back from extreme pursuits. His successful descent, captured on video and shared via his Instagram account @jason.lindstrom, showcases both exceptional skill and the determination that has defined his recent rise in the ski biking community.
“Jason has been pushing boundaries in ski biking for some time now, but this achievement really sets him apart,” noted local extreme sports enthusiasts who have followed his progression on increasingly challenging terrain.

The footage has also been featured by other online news outlets, bringing national attention to both Lindstrom’s skills and the South Lake Tahoe area’s world-class extreme terrain.
