Olympic ski jumping
Olympic ski jumping is a winter sport where athletes ski down a take-off ramp and jump into the air, aiming to cover the longest distance possible while performing in-flight techniques. Competitors are judged on both the distance they achieve and their style during the jump, which includes body position and landing technique.
The sport is divided into two main events: the normal hill and the large hill competitions. Ski jumpers typically wear specialized equipment, including long skis and a tight-fitting suit, to minimize air resistance. The event is a highlight of the Winter Olympics, showcasing the skill and bravery of the athletes.
