Norwegian scammers are under investigation.
The International Ski Association FIS has set up an ethical committee to investigate the ski jumping scandal for the Norwegian World Cup.
Norwegian Marius Lindvik, Johann Andre Forfang and Kristoffer Sundal Detered in the Men’s Suurmäki competition on Saturday. The reason for rejecting Norwegian eagles was a jumping suit against the rules.
With the help of tuning, the spacing of the costumes widened as the jumpers opened their feet after the effort. Thus, the costumes had a wider wing and better flight characteristics than the cost of the rules.
FIS says that the Ethics Committee is scheduled to investigate the illegal manipulation of Lindvik and Forfang’s costumes by the Norwegian team.

Highly expert Janne Ahonen agrees.
– This is not the case in the gray area. It is a really systematic and purposeful seeking benefit. Get more immediate than in a doping bag during Lahti. Much more important, Ahonen downloaded YLE on Sunday.
Austrian magazine Kurier says that the embarrassing episode of the Norwegians may still have a more severe turn. According to the newspaper, Norwegian ski jumpers may still lose all the medals they have earned in the Trondheim World Championships.
