Start the new year actively, boldly, a little differently. Literally jump into the new year! In Portorož, you can jump into the sea on New Year's Day. The 2018 New Year's jump into the sea will be the fourteenth in a row.

Slovenia is shaking with jumping fever. On Friday, the first race in ski jumping in the new season (2016/17) is on the schedule, where Peter Prevc, who wrote a golden chapter in the history of ski jumping last season, is starting his title defense. In the dreamy past season, he not only jumped onto the jumping Olympus, he also conquered everything there was to conquer, and at the same time broke many records and raised the appetites of the already demanding Slovenian public, who ate out of the hands of the Slovenian eagles last season. The jumpers are ready for the new season, which starts with Friday's match in Kuusamo (November 25, 2016), followed by a new one on Saturday.
Planica, where the final of the Ski Jumping World Cup will be held again in 2015 (March 19-22), smells like a record again, so just take a look at the competition program, because the holiday under the Ponci is not to be missed. The March match returns to the Gorišek brothers' airfield, where in 2005 Björn Einar Romören landed at the then record 239 meters. For the past four years, the longest running brand has been owned by the Norwegian company Vikersund, which, like Planiška, is also owned by a Norwegian, Johan Remen Evensen.
The largest trampoline park in Slovenia, built by the famous acrobats Dunking Devils, opens its doors in Ljubljana on December 1. Under the energetic name WOOP! and dressed in bright colors, the park will offer more than 100 trampolines and other sports attractions that offer a new way of entertainment, adrenaline and physical activity.
This is courage! For 19-year-old Fabian Bösch, the current world champion in freestyle skiing in the snow park, this adrenaline sports discipline is clearly not getting the heart rate up enough, so he set himself an even bolder challenge. And if his heart didn't beat wildly this time when he went backwards down the ski jump, turned around in the air, landed on the back of the jump and then jumped again and did a forward roll before landing, then he's not human! Watch his incredible jump that will take your breath away.
