Wild and Wacky "sports"-Tree Ski Jumping and Cole Slaw Wrestling


A This is a 2004 filer of Norwegian Kjell Petter Bruun practicing Tree-Ski-Jumping somewhere in southern Norway. The unofficial Norwegian Tree-Ski-Jumping Championships are, hopefully, being organized for the second time in the Hallingskarvet wilderness area, some 200 kilometers (125 miles) west of Oslo, Saturday, March 5, 2005.The jumpers will be aiming for the trees and the higher they land in the trees, the better their scores may be. The idea is to take flight from a mound of snow, fly through the air and land in a tree. To qualify as a completed jump, the skier has to hang onto the tree without falling to the ground.
