Their ski jumps are awesome. I've never seen ski jumping but it sure looks like an awesome sport to watch. The LOC has quite a set-up for it!

Ski jumping is a blast to watch. At Lake Placid they have an observation deck right at the take off of the 90 meter. They pratice all summer and put on quite a show. When I go up to the start house and look down I wonder how you get the nuts to do it the first time.
