Best Answer

Through the 2010 Games in Vancouver, women have never competed in ski jumping.

They have petitioned the International Olympic Committee to add the sport since 1998 but have been denied every time. The IOC believes there are not enough female ski jumpers worldwide for the sport to qualify as an Olympic event.
