flag Stricter ski jumping suit rules debut at 2026 Milan Cortina Games after Norway's doping-like suit scandal.

flag Ski jumping at the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Games will have stricter clothing rules after a 2025 scandal involving Norway’s team, where officials added fabric to jumpers’ suits to boost aerodynamic lift, giving an unfair advantage of up to several meters. flag The manipulation, discovered via a whistleblower video and seam inspections, led to bans for three team staff and suspensions for top athletes, including defending Olympic champion Marius Lindvik. flag In response, the International Ski Federation (FIS) introduced 3-D body scans, tamper-proof microchips in suits, a yellow-card system for violations, and hired former jumper Mathias Hafele as an equipment expert to ensure compliance.
