Ski jumping world cup
The Ski Jumping World Cup is a series of around 30 ski jumping and ski flying competitions held by the FIS Ski Sports Association throughout the winter .
The ski jumping World Cup takes place mainly in Northern and Central Europe , but individual events are or have also been held in Eastern Europe , North America and Japan . The World Cup competitions are summarized in an overall ranking that is calculated according to the FIS point system .
The most famous World Cup competitions are the one on the Norwegian Holmenkollbakken in Oslo and the Four Hills Tournament . Some of the World Cup competitions take place on larger ski jumping hills . In addition to the individual competitions, team competitions are also held by nation. Ski jumping competitions at the Nordic World Ski Championships or the Olympic Winter Games , on the other hand, do not count towards the World Cup.
World cup
history
Before the introduction of this World Cup, the important ski jumping competitions (outside of World Championships or Olympic Games), such as the Four Hills Tournament, jumping competitions on Holmenkollen , in Planica and other places known for it, were called FIS jumping (possibly FIS A jumping) designated. The Jumping World Cup was scheduled for the 32nd FIS Congress (May 18/19, 1979 in Nice ); the World Cup was officially recognized in three groups (alpine, cross-country skiing, jumping) at the next congress (11th to 16th May 1979 ). May 1981 in Puerto de la Cruz , Tenerife).
Implementation of the world cup jumping
At the beginning of a World Cup, there is usually an official training session. In order to be able to take part in a ski jumping event held as part of the World Cup, the athletes must first qualify. Athletes who have already scored World Cup points or Summer Grand Prix points at some point or who have received at least one point in the Continental Cup in the current season or the previous season are eligible to participate in the qualification .
The number of possible starters of a nation is limited by a quota system . The number of starting places per nation is 2 to 6 depending on the successes in the previous World Cup competitions. The three most successful nations in the Continental Cup each receive an additional starting place. The host ski association may nominate 6 additional starters for the competition in two competitions per season, which form the so-called national group . A maximum of 13 starting places per nation are possible. This means that around 65 to 70 jumpers usually take part in the qualification. In this, the starting field will be reduced to 50 athletes. Up to the 2006/07 season, the 15 leaders in the overall World Cup were automatically pre-qualified, since the 2007/08 season there have only been the top ten. Since the 2006/07 season, the best placed non-prequalified jumper in the competition has been awarded the “Man of the day” award. With the 2017/18 season there are no longer any automatically pre-qualified jumpers.
If the qualification round has already been carried out the day before the actual jumping, or if it cannot take place at all for weather reasons (then all jumpers are allowed to take part in the competition), a trial round will take place before the first competition round.
The best 30 jumpers from the first round will compete again in the second round. The points of the first and second round (each consisting of distance and posture marks) are added to determine the result of the jump. Due to the weather, the jury can refrain from organizing the second round, in which case the result of the first round will be considered the final result. The top 30 jumpers in the final result will receive points for the overall World Cup ranking according to the FIS point system .
Venues
The men's World Cup has so far been held at 58 locations in Europe, Asia and North America and the women's World Cup at 22 locations in Europe and Asia. ( As of the 2018/19 season )
Other competitive series
Since 1994 there has also been a shorter series of summer competitions, the Summer Grand Prix , which is held on plastic covered hills . For young jumpers there is also the Continental Cup as well as the Alpine Cup and the FIS Cup . Furthermore, every national association offers national series and trophies for young jumpers.
