We are organizing 3 two-hour taster sessions at 13:00, 15:00 and 17:00. Each group can accommodate 7 participants at a time, so make sure to sign up quickly!
During the session, we will progress step by step from dryland practice toward the hill and skis. You’ll start by learning the basic skiing stance, takeoff technique, and balance. The goal is that by the end, you’ll have the courage to ski down the landing hill on ski jumping skis. After that, you may also try an actual jump if you feel like it and have the confidence (Note: jumps will be done from a small hill).
The sessions will be guided by Pyrintö’s own ski jumpers, so you’ll be in good hands!
Price:
- Free of charge for SportUni members

Please note that neither SportUni nor Pyrintö provides insurance for the event. Make sure your own insurance covers ski jumping.
We also kindly ask you to send your shoe size by email to emma.kosonen@tuni.fi after registering. This helps us prepare for the trial session, as Pyrintö has only a limited number of ski jumping boots available.
See you on the hill!
