My wife and son love skiing and have been to several places in France and also Lake Louise Canada  There is know way you would get me skiing and I doubt that they would do any ski jumps ,while in Canada we did see the Calgary ski jumps .

I've often wonderred, how do you start ski jumping, at some poit you've got to launch yourself off that hill?

I recommend the biopic about Eddie the Eagle which explains how a short-sighted builder's son from Bristol got into ski jumping

My wife Val and my son Glenn really enjoyed watching that film ,

I removed the video, seems YouTube blocked it because the music playing over the loudspeakers was copyrighted 

Here's a shorter video, hopefully it gets by the censors 

Managed to get rid of the music, so here's the longer version........hopefully
