In this short activity we look at how important a luger’s starting speed is and try to figure out how they get to their extreme speeds.

Scoring Olympic Ski Jumping – The scoring rubric for each of the Olympic events is intended to eliminate the possibility of scoring bias from the judges. Let your students learn more about the scoring of this one event and decide whether it seems fair or not.
Ski jumping results are based on style points and distance points.
