ski flying

Ski flying is a specialized Olympic sport where athletes ski down an extremely long and steep ramp called a "hill," aiming to achieve maximum distance through timed, aerodynamic jumps. Using a specialized ski jumping technique and a streamlined body position, jumpers take off from a large hill (larger than standard ski jumps). The goal is to soar as far as possible while maintaining control and proper form to earn points based on distance and style. It's an advanced form of ski jumping emphasizing speed, technique, and aerodynamics, pushing the limits of human flight on snow.
