Ski jumping is a sport or event in which competitors jump on skis for points or distance. Ski jumping may be performed on either water skis or snow skis, and jumpers in either case are judged by the distance they travel in the air. Competition winter (snow) ski jumpers are also judged on the style of each jump. Water ski jumpers are judged purely on the distance they travel in the air for a clean jump. A clean jump is a jump in which the jumper lands upright and maintains a grip on the rope until the judges deem the jump complete.
=Winter Ski Jumping=
Ski jumping is a winter sport in which skiers go down an inrun with a take-off ramp (the jump), attempting to go as far as possible. In addition to the length that skiers jump, referees give points for style. The skis used for ski jumping are wide and long, and only attach to the skier's toes.
