Johan Sætre (born 5 January 1952) is a Norwegian former ski jumper.

Career

An active ski jumper in the 1970s and 1980s, he won ten Norwegian ski jumping championships (Normal hill: 1974–1977, 1979, and 1980; Large hill: 1976, 1977, 1980, and 1982). He is the most-winning ski jumper of all time in the Norwegian Championships, but individual success eluded him in major international championships. At the 1982 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships in Oslo, Sætre won a gold in the team large hill competition. His best finish in an Olympic or World Cup competition was a win in 1981 at Gstaad, Switzerland.

Sætre earned the Holmenkollen medal in 1981.
