Nordic combined

See main article: article and Nordic combined at the 1936 Winter Olympics.

Events:

The cross-country skiing part of this event was combined with the main medal event of cross-country skiing. Those results can be found above in this article in the cross-country skiing section. Some athletes (but not all) entered in both the cross-country skiing and Nordic combined event, their time on the 18 km was used for both events.

The ski jumping (normal hill) event was held separate from the main medal event of ski jumping, results can be found in the table below.

Griffith Pugh was chosen for all three skiing events, but could not compete because of an injury.
