The competition scheduled two jumps per entrant. Standings were determined by a point system under the parameters of combined distance points and "style" points awarded for each attempt, judged by a panel of 5 officials. This event marked the first time the Däscher Technique was used in ski jumping competitions.

Fifteen nations participated in ski jumping at the Squaw Valley Games.
