The view of a ski jumper

Last weekend I was road tripping and the road took me to a litlle mountain town name Rasnov (link to my previous post about Rasnov). Near this town, you can find Râșnov Sports Complex that was built just, for 2013 European Youth Winter Olympic Festival which was hosted in the nearby city of Brașov. Whenever there was on Eurosport a ski jumping competition I wanted to see what is like to sit on the starting bench and I tell you the view is impressive.

Râșnov Sports Complex has 4 trampolines and the big one has the construction point at 100 meters. The small trampoline as the construction point at 70 meters and the other two trampolines are for practice and measures 35 meters and 15 meters.

I was so excited to be there that I need to climb the trampolines and the to be on the jumping track to feel the adrenalin rushing through my body.

Râșnov Sports Complex hosted two ski jumping events, as part of the Women's Ski Jumping World Cup 2013/2014 competition. This year it was planned another event from Women's Ski Jumping World Cup but due to weather condition and the small amount of snow, the event was canceled and postponed.

My next goal now is to be in the crowd in a Ski Jumping World Cup event to be a part of this beautiful sport. Till then I'll be watching the 23 winter Olympics games in Pyeongchang, South Coreea from my TV and I'll support my favorite Ski jumper Peter Prevc.

The feeling was incredible and I in the future I hope I can take some lessons because I love this sport and I want to jump.
