The Calgary jumps are a no-go. Both because the big jump isn't suitable for competition anymore (landing area not sufficient, as well as the exposure to the crosswinds), but also because the setup for moguls and aerials would use the landing area and amphitheatre which would be a much more lucrative event anyway.



If there isn't a Whistler option and they had to start from scratch, finding an option at the Canmore Nordic Centre (unlikely) or Nakiska would be the only ones.
