Jim Page (born May 29, 1941) is an American skier. He competed in the Nordic combined event at the 1964 Winter Olympics.[1] Page later became a coach, and in 1987 was involved in a blood doping scheme with American skier Kerry Lynch, who subsequently had his silver medal for 15 km individual event at the 1987 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships stripped.[2] Page was given a lifetime ban from the sport, which was later lifted in 1990.[1]
