Hehe :D:

Actually, true. But it is just sad.

This is not just mine personal opinion. I watched all of the competitions this summer on TV (in the same way I watched probably every single competition in last 15 seasons), and the feeling was nowhere the same. You even have an interview with Wolfgang Loitzl on skijumping.pl and he says that he...

This cannot be compared with a change to V-Style. There were so many different styles in skijumping from creation of the discipline, parallel style that was used before V-Style was completely different from for ex. Kongsberg style used in 1920's. But the old scoring system remained basically...

I never said that. But it is the well known fact that many 'fans' of ski jumping don't care about the competition itself, and they are only there to see their 'sexiest' jumper, party and get drunk.

Just a simple message : 1) By using these formulas, direct contact that fans have with every jump (jumper) will be lost forever, because distance and style marks (things which fans could actually see) will be totally irrelevant without taking into account those hidden factors. 2) We would be...

At least it is worth a try :pffft: 50% of ski jumping fans (and probably more, the same goes to this forum) doesn't give a shit about new rules anyway because they are only there to picture and scream for their Bjoern, Martin or whoever, they would still watch ski jumping no matter how stupid...

..

Those of us who are against new rules should write to the following address : lewis@fisski.com Ms. Sarah Lewis is the Secretary General of FIS Council, the body that would (hopefully) have the final decision.

And why is then mr. Hofer acting like decision was already made? He mentioned 1000 times already that 2009/10 season will be the testing period, but from season 2010/11 new rules will be made official. Even further, he said yesterday at Forum Nordicum at Willingen that 2014 Olympic Games will be...

http://www.mattihautamaki.fi/en/Forum.html * Matti, can jumpers do anything about these shitty rules? No we can't. There's no such sport in this world that athelets could say or do anything. Just like in real life: Old men/women make decisions and no matter how stupid they are, we average...

Walter Hofer speaks of last season regulation changes to Nordic Combined : "Weniger ist mehr. Wir gehen zurück zu den Wurzeln" http://sport.orf.at/080530-6045/?href=http%3A%2F%2Fsport.orf.at%2F080530-6045%2F6046bigstory_txt.html ''This reorganization is a unique opportunity for Nordic...

It is interesting to note that ÖSV-Präsident Herr Schröcksnadel is also one of the presidents of newly formed European Ski Federation (ESF), an organization which is totally independent from FIS...:pffft:

Ein weiteres Problem Andreas Kuettel : ''Auch das mit dem Verkürzen des Anlaufs ist nicht ganz so einfach. Der Verlust an Weite ist nicht gleich gross, wenn ich von Luke 16 statt von 18 springe, wie wenn ich von 16 auf 14 verkürze. Jede Schanze hat einen Punkt, ab dem der Tempoverlust...

ÖSV-Präsident gegen neue Skisprung-Regeln http://www.rundschau.co.at/rsooe/sport/story.csp?cid=14885337&sid=79&fid=55

Of course. We should only believe those news and interviews which support your opinion. :D:

It should not have been, but it was. So what has changed so drastically over the last 6 months, so now not using the wind rule is almost unthinkable? FIS said that they came to conclusions after SGP that the wind is not so influential as they believed before, and this is the reason why the...

The plan was not to install them only in Innsbruck : ''Zu den Schanzen, bei denen Windnetze sowohl möglich als auch sinnvoll wären, gehören laut Fis-Liste auch Garmisch, Oberstdorf, Willingen, Oslo, Planica oder Liberec.'' (and probably many more)...

Schlierenzauer said the same thing Kranjec would have said if he had won. The wind had become perfect excuse for those jumpers who are unsatisfied with results. (just like the losing teams in football are almost always accusing referees). But if wind is so influential, how come almost always the...
