  • Until the winner of a ski jumping contest is whoever jumps furthest, ignoring 'style' it is bollocks anyway.

  • Christ, even the fly-ey bit is ridiculously difficult. 60 points nominally but then more or fewer depending on whether you jump beyond-or don't get to, a given point. Why not just say "you flew 50 metres, you get 50 points. And you flew 100 metres, that's 100 points"?
