Bradley Wiggins comes down the ramp and prepares for take-off in his jump suit on the slopes in Austria.
Bradley Wiggins has been recorded doing his first mini ski jumps as he trains to be a contestant on the reality TV show ‘The Jump’.
Wiggins was filmed in the clip below taking his first very small jumps to get the feel of being airborne and landing upright, which he managed with apparent ease.
The footage was captured on the slopes of Wörgl, Austria, where Wiggins was being tutored along with model Caprice and The Only Way is Essex (cough – Ed) celebrity Lydia Bright.
Wiggins is the one with the beard in the video. He is also wearing a greyish blue jump suit with green arms.
