The ski jumping program at the 2022 Winter Olympics concluded in an upset performance from the Slovenian athletes. They edged out Norway and Germany to the podium and found it three times in the women’s normal hill, mixed team final and men’s team final. Slovenian stand out star Ursa Bogataj did a complete 180 from her last place finish in the event at 2018 PyeongChang and took gold in Beijing. This was her first gold medal of her career. The Slovenians won the most medals in the 2022 ski jumping program.

Bogataj was not the only woman who made her mark on the take-off table. United States’ Anna Hoffmann made her Olympic debut at the 2022 Olympic games and was the lone woman to compete for Team USA. Ski jumping was introduced in 2014 to the Olympics and Hoffmann continued the Americans' representation for all three games.

Fan favorites coming into the Games were Germany’s Karl Geiger and Norwegians Marius Lindvik and Robert Johansson. Out of the three, Lindvik was the only one who found gold with a huge jump in the large hill individual final round.
