List of FIS Nordic World Ski Championships medalists in nordic combined
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of medalists in the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships in nordic combined.

This event first debuted in 1925. Then, the athletes competing in Nordic combined competed together with the 18 km athletes and the ski jumpers, so an athlete could conceivably win gold in ski jumping and combined on the same day. This format existed until 1939. From 1950, there were separate races for athletes competing in the combined competition, and there was one individual competition, with three jumps where the best two counted, and a 15 km cross country race. Later, the third jump was abolished. From 1985 onwards, the Gundersen method - named after the former combined athlete Gunder Gundersen, who devised the system - was used, where the points from ski jumping were recalculated into cross country skiing times and the athletes then started with a staggered start, the winning ski jumper starting first. The team event debuted in 1982 while the sprint event debuted in 1999.
This involves two jumps from the ski jumping normal hill. Any one point difference between competitors in the ski jump represents 4 seconds between them at the start of the cross country part of the competition.
The 18 km/ 15km Individual Gundersen is one of only three events held at every FIS Nordic World Ski Championships.
This involves each team member taking two jumps from the ski jumping large hill. For each point difference between teams, there are 1.5 seconds between them at the start of the cross country part of the competition.
1984 Extra World Championships in Rovaniemi, Finland as the team event was not on the program at the 1984 Winter Olympics in Sarajevo.
Similar to the 15 km Individual Gundersen except competitors have only one jump from the ski jumping large hill instead of two jumps from the ski jumping normal hill.
