FIS Ski Weltcup Titisee-Neustadt 2016: Noriaki Kasai
Skiing is also popular and taught in schools in northern parts of the mountainous country. In particular, Japan has been producing good [[ski jumpers]] since the [[Sapporo Olympics]] in 1972, when Japanese athletes won all three medals in the 70 Meter Jumps with [[Yukio Kasaya]] getting the first gold for Japan in Winter Olympics. In the 1990s, [[Noriaki Kasai]] and [[Kazuyoshi Funaki]] scored many wins in the [[FIS Ski Jumping World Cup]]. More recently, [[Ryoyu Kobayashi]] won the overall title in the 2018–19 season. In the women's arena, the four-time season champion [[Sara Takanashi]] is renewing her world record of most wins in the World Cup.
