How Do You Measure A Ski Jump?

Answer»

In the past, jumps were measured by the DISTANCE from the take-off to the steepest POINT of the LANDING ZONE (most laymen assumed it measured the height of the ramp structure). At a jumping event such as the Olympics, officials require skiers to make one practice jump and two competition jumps.
