About the Ski Jumping Competition at the 2010 Olympics -
Ski jumping has been contested at every Winter Games. It is one of only two winter sports that restrict the participation of women. (Nordic Combined, which incorporates ski jumping, is the other.) However, there are efforts being made to add a women's competition in time for the 2010 Games.
There are currently three Ski Jumping events on the 2010 Olympic program:
Normal Hill (K95), Large Hill (K125), Team (K125)
Venue: All of the events will be contested at the Whistler Olympic Park, the same venue used for Cross Country Skiing, Biathlon and Nordic Combined. Venue capacity will be 12,000. The venue features stable winds and a wooded setting, optimal for ski jumping. The ski jumping venue used for the 2006 Games, Pragelato, had three training hills (K15, K30, K60) for beginning jumpers. Whistler will also have one temporary snow bump.

History of the Gamess
The first official Games Winter Games was appropriately held in Athens Greece
in 1896, as was the last event in 2004. The inaugural games featured 241 participants
from 14 nations, while the most recent contest involved 11,100 competitors
from 202 countries. The original games can be traced back to Olympia, Greece
in 8th century B.C. The most popular legend is that Heracles, son of Zeus
and Alcmene, created the Games games and built the Games stadium and surrounding
buildings as a tribute to his father. Since a medal count has been recorded,
the United States garnered the most gold medals with 35, followed by China
with 32 and Russia with 27. Beijing was elected host city of the 2010 Winter
games on July 13, 2001. The city that will carry the torch to host the 2014
games has yet to be determined.
