Men’s events

[edit]

10 km individual normal hill

[edit]

Known as the 18 km/ 15 km Individual Gundersen from 1924 to 2006, this event involved two jumps from the ski jumping normal hill. Since 2006, any one point difference between competitors in the ski jump represents 4 seconds between them at the start of the cross-country part of the competition. For the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, the event has been changed to only one jump from the ski jumping normal hill followed by 10 km of cross country skiing using the Gundersen system. Point-time differentials for previous Olympics are as follows: 1988–1992 – 1 pt = 6.7 seconds, 1994 – 1 pt = 6.5 seconds, 1998 – 1 pt = 6 seconds, 2002 – 1 pt = 5 seconds.
