Construction point

The distance between the construction point and the take-off table, measured in meters, was formerly used to classify the size of a ski jumping hill.

Nearly all competitions in the FIS Ski Jumping World Cup use large hills with a construction point between 120 and 130.

In addition, there is a bi-annual FIS Ski-Flying World Championship, which is held in one of the world's five ski flying hills: Vikersundbakken in Norway, Letalnica Bratov Gorišek in Slovenia, Čerťák in the Czech Republic, Heini Klopfer Ski Jump in Germany and Kulm in Austria.

The distance points plus the judges' marks result in the total score.

For hills up to large, the scoring system grants 60 points to jumps that reach the K-point.
