Some beginner questions
Posted: 07 Sep 2020, 15:04
Hi everyone, I'm new here.
I watched Eddie the Eagle, and I fell in love with ski jumping. Why are there 250m jumps and in the olympics they don't even get close to 200m. Are the ramps of different measures? Or the best don't compet at the olympics?
The other is, how can I watch the world championship? I know it'll luckily begin in November (If I'm right), but is there a youtube channel, a web or something where I can watch the competence? Doesn't mattee if it's not live.
In my country we have no winter, but I still like the sport very much.
Thank you.
