ABOUT PLANICA
It's a hard task to say something about Planica that hasn't already
been said. It's also a hard task to point out a single event because
there have been so many in the past decades that the ones not
mentioned could easily be wronged. Nevertheless it can be said
that it is not just the world's largest flying hill that makes Planica
what it is.
Planica is the place where the history of ski jumping and flying has
been and will be created. Planica has outgrown the frame work of
the country on the sunny side of the Alps and has become a world
renowned synonym for the greatness of sports.
Some say that the things in Planica
are finally changing for the better.
We who have for many years been
a part of this largest sporting event
in Slovenia, say the same.
The new Nordic center will be a
reward for all who have in one way
or another been a part of Planica's
history, and will be the proof that
Planica deserves more - more for
competitors, coaches, viewers,
journalists, organizers, for everybody who have in the last seventy
and more years created Planica's
story.
15
FIS Ski Flying World Championships 2010
In the valley of the jumping hills man has for the first time in history
jumped over 100 meters and over 200 meters and then 239 meters
which is today's world record and will for sure be soon exceded.
In Planica the technical masters have created a new history of jumping and flying hills construction. Gorec, Bloudek and Rožman's
heretage has been in great style carried on by brothers Gorišek,
and the valley at the foot of Ponce mountains stays forever engraved in the minds of countless devotees of this sport – the ones that
at the speed of more than 100 km/h take off into the precepice as
well as the ones who, down by the outrun, with open mouths and
unbelieving eyes, witness the shifting of borders of human ability.

Planica, planica snežena kraljica!
Le kdo je ne pozna - lepoto iz snega?
Skakalci kot ptice letijo pod nebo
in slavo Planice v širni svet neso.
Pozdrav neustrašnim junakom daljav,
prijateljev strmih snežnih planjav!
Slava, čast velja vsem skakalcem tega sveta!
Junaki Planice letijo kot ptice,
spet slava gre v svet za dolgo vrsto let!
Planica, Planica, še pridemo nazaj,
v Planico, Planico, pod Ponce v zimski raj!

PLANICA AND CHILDREN
The artistic competition Planica and Children has become an indispensable part of the Planica story. The competition began in 2005
when two classes of a primary school in Ljubljana were invited to
visit the valley at the foot of Ponce mountains.
Since then every year more children from all over Slovenia take
part in the competition.
We have till now received innumerable excellent posters which
show how children love ski jumping and how well they know Planica. Of course, we have prepared the competition this year as well.
Together with the Ministry of Education and Sports and the Institute
of Fair-play and Tolerance in Sport
we make a well-trained team that
enables our youngest to enjoy unforgetable days in Planica.
The children who visit this most
northwestern part of Slovenia get
a chance to see the best representatives of the fascinating sport called ski flying. We are very glad that
every year we have the oportunity
to see primary school students
enjoy this winter spectacle, and
while offering fun we also keep in
mind that it is our task to present
to them the healthy way of living
that goes along with sports.
21
FIS Ski Flying World Championships 2010
This year seven and eight graders and their teachers together with
other visitors, organizers and journalists will once more with enthusiasm watch the flying hill and loudly cheer each flight.
We must by all means also mention the project lead by insurance
company Zavarovalnica Triglav d.d. which has been for decades
bringing more than 3.000 children to Planica each year from all
over Slovenia and thus presenting this wonderful event to our
youngest visitors.

FACEBOOK
As more and more people today use the internet as a source of information and entertainment, we have decided to present Planica
also on the Facebook, the most popular and the most populated
virtual social network.
On April 29, 2009 the page Planica 2010 FIS Ski Flying World
Championships was created. By the end of February 2010 it already
had over 4.000 fans, most of them of course from Slovenia - from
Ljubljana and Maribor, to be precise. Other fans come from Norway,
Austria, Poland and Finland and some even from the United States.
87 percent of fans fall into age category 13 - 34 years.
Increase of older ski flying fans is
expected when older internet users accept Facebook as an everyday part of the internet.
The fans' comments show their
desire to improve the page and
help Planica shine in all its splendour.
Many of them also claim that Planica is one of the most eagerly expected sporting events at home
and abroad.

Interview Jelko Gros, Chief of competition
What do you as the chief of competition expect from this World Championship?
A World Championship always brings a world champion as well. It is not
just a series of competitions. From my point of view it is of course one of
the peaks that I as an official can experience. I always devide the expectations to personal ones which I have already mentioned and to the ones
pertaining to the organization or the event itself. I expect that my teammates, who I've been working with for two years now and who had of course
been here before me, will do all the work that they do so well. We Slovenians have always been well-known as good sporting workers. I also expect
them to remain loyal to Planica and the whole tradition.
In what way will this World Championship be different from those abroad and those
from Planica's past?
It's hard to say whether we will do better or worse, because no competition
in the world equals its precedent. My first and formost care is that we do all
we can. If the wether is fine and the competitors are in good form, the viewers will enjoy the competition. And if besides that Slovenian jumpers do
their part well, it will be the greatest reward for all, including the guys who
already work in Planica or will start to soon.
The Olympic Games will just be over. Can this World Championship be compared
with them? What motivation will competitors have?
I think that due to the Olympic Games the festivity in Planica will be even
greater, as will be competitive tension. I think that a day after Olympic Games athletes forget about them and go for new victories. We the officials
have a bigger problem with that because we have to take history into account, but athletes have to forget everything and look ahead as if nothing
has happened. Therefore I have no doubts about their motivation.
Which part will the new rules play?
With this system we will be witnessing many long flights. I expect to see at
least fifteen jumps over 200 meters and at least two over two hundred and
thirty meters at each competition.
Is it different or perhaps harder to manage a competition in Planica than in other
jumping or flying hills?
Planica competition is rather demanding. The conditions are predictable
but they change at certain hours of the day. To jump in Planica with the
wind blowing from behind, as it happened last year, is not possible. The
flying hill is made for record lenghts and it's a pure pleasure to see the lifting wind. Competitions in Harrachov are perhaps more demanding to
manage due to specific aerodynamic conditions on the jumping hill. In that
sense Kulm and Oberstdorf are more simple.
