Stanislav Řezáč

Stanislav Řezáč (born 29 April 1973) is a Czech long-distance cross-country skier competing in the Worldloppet Ski Federation series of races.

Řezáč won the prestigious Birkebeinerrennet race in Norway for four times - in 2002, 2005, 2008 and 2011. He also finished second-placed in the Vasaloppet race in Sweden in 2011. In 2009 he finished third in the same race.

Media
In 2011 a video of Řezáč giving an interview after the Birkebeinerrennet race became viral in the Czech Republic. Řezáč was struggling to speak English, mixing it with German and Czech. During the interview, Řezáč mentions the word "šůšn" several times. Journalists initially thought it was a mispronunciation of an English word; it was later revealed to be a reference to the Norwegian village of Sjusjøen.
