Insulated tarp for Vancouver 2010 Olympics.
Below is a heavy duty insulated tarp covering a ski jump at the site of the Vancouver 2010 Olympics.
Vancouver became Canada’s third Olympic host city after winning the vote on the second ballot over PyeongChang, South Korea. But unlike the first two times the Olympic Games came to Canada when the host nation went without a gold medal, this time there were a record number of trips to the top of the podium. Canada’s 14 gold medals were the most ever won by one country at a Winter Games while the 26 total medals was a Canadian high.
Ski jumping at the Olympic Games is contested on two different hills, designated as “normal” and “large” based on the furthest distance that a jumper is able to safely travel. Normal hills are between 85m and 109m while large hills are greater than 110m.
Results are based on both the distance traveled as well as the jumper’s body position in the air and upon landing. Each hill has a K-point based on its size (95m for normal hill; 125m for large hill). A jump to the K-point is worth 60 points. Five judges evaluate each jump for style on a scale of 0 to 20. The highest and lowest scores are dropped with the rest added together. Distance and style points are added together to get the total jump score.
