All Eyes On The Jumper
It's another shot from the ski jumping competition that I recently attended at the Norge Ski Club, in Fox River Grove, Illinois. This shot not only shows a jumper in action, but also provides a better look at the plastic material that is used on the landing hill in warm weather when snow is not present.
The material is configured as mats that are laid out in overlapping fashion like shingles on a roof, and is said to provide a landing surface that simulates the surface of snow very well. The material is periodically sprayed with water during the competition.
