Some things you could take into consideration are the weight of the jumpers. There height, well more like overall mass. Gravity would be another key factor. The angle at which she jumped could be another variable. Wind resistance could be another important thing. How far she is attempting to jump is an important variable.

Those are just some of the basic things.

Hope I helped. :)

Performance in ski jumping is determined not only by the motor abilities of the athlete, but alsoto a large extent by the aerodynamic features of the equipment used and by a low body weight. Manyski jumpers were extremely underweight to the point of having a body mass index (BMI =m/h2of16.4 kgm−2(heighth= 1.73m, body massm= 49 kg)
