Why Fly to Innsbruck, Austria to Watch World Cup Ski Jumping…

True Ski Jumping originated in Morgedal, Norway. Olaf Rye, a Norwegian lieutenant, was the first known ski jumper. In 1809, he launched himself 9.5 meters (10 yards) in the air in front of an audience of other soldiers.

Harris Hill Ski Jump Competition • Brattleboro, Vermont

The Harris Hill Ski Jumping Competition is next weekend, February 17-18, 2024. The competition offers spectators an opportunity to experience the Olympic sport of ski jumping up close in all its breathtaking, heart-stopping glory—complete with distant ringing cow bells make it seem like you’re in Austria for the day! This long-standing, two-day Brattleboro tradition is held on New England’s only Olympic-size, 90-meter hill.
