History

[edit]

As with theski jumping competitions, it is disputed whether the Olympic Games from1924 to1956 were held as normal hill or large hill competitions. At that time, the same hill (and therefore the same hill size) was used for the ski jumping competition and the Nordic combined competition.

Whoever earned the most points from both competitions won the event. At the1952 Winter Olympics, the ski jumping was held first, followed by 18 km cross-country skiing. The cross-country skiing portion was reduced to 15 km at the1956 Winter Olympics. The ski jumping styles would change over the years as well, from theKongsberger technique afterWorld War I to theDaescher technique in the 1950s to the currentV-style from 1985 onwards.

The cross-country skiing technique would switch from classical to freestyle for all competitions beginning in 1985. At the1988 Winter Olympics theGundersen method was adopted, meaning the 15 km cross country portion would go from aninterval start race to apursuit race, so that whoever crossed the finish line first won the event.

The team event with a 3 × 10 km cross country relay started at the 1988 Winter Olympics, changing to the current 4 × 5 km cross-country relay at the1998 Winter Olympics. The 7.5 km sprint event was added at the2002 Winter Olympics. For the2010 Winter Olympics, the 15 km Individual Gundersen which consisted of 2 jumps followed by 15 km cross country was replaced by a 10 km individual normal hill event which consists of one jump from the individual normal hill following by 10 km of cross country using the Gundersen system, while the 7.5 km sprint was replaced by the 10 km individual large hill event.

Today theInternational Ski Federation sanction no women's competitions. Even though it was decided in early-November 2016 that women's competitions were to be established by theOlympic Winter Games in 2022,^[1] nordic combined remains a men's only event as of the2026 Winter Olympics.
