FROM 1.5 TO 1.8 POINTS ON LARGE HILLLa novelty & agrave; pi & ugrave; relevant & egrave; to confirm the decision to increase from 1.5 to 1.8 points assigned to each meter jumped in races on the large trampoline, just like it does in the special jump. The change favors those who have quality & agrave; Since jumping & eacute; past the point K will come & agrave; rewarded with a 20% increase in the value of its meters, while not reach it means to be penalized with a 20% more & ugrave; rispeto the past. To give a concrete example think all''Holmenkollenbakken (K120). Until last year, landing at 128 meters was equivalent to 72 points, while reaching 112 meters gave 48 points. With the new conversion the first measure would be 74.4 points, the second 45.6. So if the first gap in the evidence base established purely by measurement (without regard to compensation and evaluation of judges) stood at 1''36 ", now he becomes of 1''55". No changes to the competition instead of Normal Hill where every meter will continue & agrave; to be worth 2 points. NORDIC COMBINED FEMALE NEXT tuttala FIS has also confirmed its intention to press the pi & ugrave; possible foot sull''acceleratore regarding women Nordic combined. The willingness & agrave; & Egrave; to create a circuit of Continental Cup for the 2017 season - '' 18 and put the pink version of the discipline in the program of the Junior World Cup of 2019. Looking even more & ugrave; in the & agrave ;, you can & ograve; assume that the FIS wants to create a Women's World Cup by the middle & agrave; the next decade. Probably the combinatiste will participate at the World Seniors starting from 2021 or 2023 with the 'goal to become an Olympic sport in 2026 (or at most & ugrave; later in 2030). It should not be forgotten as currently the nordic combined both the 'only discipline included in the Olympic Games, both summer and winter, to not have a female version. Certainly not a good omen in a historical moment in which the IOC is almost maniacalit & agrave; the equality & agrave; sexual. Hence the need & agrave; accelerate the pi & ugrave; can the process of growth of the discipline. One wonders if this haste does not lead to the sacrifice of quality & agrave; with creating the new product.
