Sledge jump

Sledge jump Though relatively new to the Northern Games, the sledge jump is a physically challenging event.

In the sledge jump, athletes must jump with both legs together over a row of ten sledges.

Upon coming to the end of each row, the athlete has one jump to turn around and five seconds to begin jumping the row in the opposite direction.

If any sledges are touched or knocked over, the athlete's turn is complete. The athlete that jumps the most sledges is declared the winner.
