Age group classification has long been a fact in the world of sport. More rare is Ability Classification, separating athletes of ordinary talent from the very talented few, in order to give the average folks a better chance to win (and perhaps some other reasons). Class B is still on the books in U.S. ski jumping, though in recent years most tournaments do not include this class. For many years, there were classes (C in the East, B2 in Central) for skiers not permitted to compete on big hills (the reason should be obvious). In the Rockies years ago, one reads about a competitions involving "the A hill and the [smaller] B hill", presumably again for the safety of the B jumpers. One way to justify having separate Class A and Class B is to protect the weekend warrier from the full time elite athlete, but when it comes to national championships, it is harder to rationalize the concept of "National Class B Champion". Is this simply the best of the rest? ...the best not very good ski jumper in the U.S.? However we try to explain it, the U.S. actually held a National Class B Championship for 50 years, from 1908 to 1957. During that time, it was considered a great honor to be named a Class A ski jumper, and various criteria were used from time to time and region to region. What follows is a list of the U.S. National Class B champions.

Can you find any jumpers who were national champions in all four classes: Junior Class, Class B, Class A and Masters Class?
