1989–90 FIS Ski Jumping World Cup
1989–1990 season of the FIS Ski Jumping World Cup
The 1989–90 FIS Ski Jumping World Cup was the 11th World Cup season in ski jumping.
Season began in Thunder Bay, Canada on 3 December 1989 and finished in Planica, Yugoslavia on 25 March 1990. The individual World Cup overall winner was Finnish jumper Ari-Pekka Nikkola and Nations Cup was taken by Team of Austria for the fifth time in total.
Due to lack of snow competition from Falun was replaced in Sollefteå; and from Bærum to Oslo on Friday (cancelled due to bad water) and once again on Saturday to Raufoss. Originally scheduled Sunday competition in Oslo didn't count for World Cup as porcelain inrun was used instead (warm weather). Coaches and athletes almost boycott the competition as they didnt agree with that FIS decision. Coaches were right as some of the jumpers didn't find their way to porcelain.
25 men's individual events on 19 different venues in 13 countries were held on three different continents (Europe, Asia and North America). Two competition were cancelled this season.
Peaks of the season were Ski Flying World Champ., 4HT, Bohemia and Swiss Tournament.

Why this record matters
The phrase “1989–1990 season of the FIS Ski Jumping World Cup” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 15, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2067994. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1989 and 1990.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
