Report of the Sub-Committees 5.1 Jumping Hills Hand Martin Renn informed the Committee that despite measures agreed upon during a meeting in Costa Navarino (GRE) during FIS Congress Vikersund has not followed up on the results and as an outcome the flying hill has no valid certificate. see enclosure 5.2 Equipment and Development The Chairman, Bertil Palsrud (NOR) reports from the meeting in the morning of the 28th September 2018: - There were no major changes regarding the equipment introduced last spring. The procedure for body weight control was changed, and athletes are being weighted without boots and keils/jets now. Four different new BMI tables were introduced for consideration. FIS staff will collect data and statistics throughout winter season on ski length /body weight relation and general tendency. - Presentation from Inggard Lereim, member of the FIS Medical Committee. A medical study on female ski jumpers was carried out last winter season by medical students of Oslo University. The outcome proves that there are not only fewer and fewer injuries, but that they are of less severe nature. This shows that relevant preventive measures have been undertaken by teams and coaching staff. Female ski jumpers are getting stronger and better trained than a few years ago. In the future, similar studies are planned for female NC athletes, which might be a good way of finding out if Nordic Combined strength is in anyway preventing injuries in Ski Jumping. The main reason for injuries in Ski Jumping in the last few years seems to be the supination of the knee caused by / brought about by binding rotation. New proposed BMI tables will have to be examined with help of outside expertise.
