Season began in Thunder Bay, Canada on 6 December 1986 and was finished in Oslo, Norway on 21 March 1987. The individual World Cup winner was Norwegian ski jumper Vegard Opaas (first for his country) and Nations Cup was taken by Team of Austria.

22 men's individual events on 15 different venues in 12 countries were held on three different continents (Europe, Asia and North America). One competition was cancelled this season in Oberhof due to strong wind and freezing cold weather.

Peaks of the season were Nordic World Ski Championships, 4H Tournament and K.O.P.

On 14 March 1987 in Planica, polish Piotr Fijas improved the world record on 194 metres (636 ft). But FIS didn't recognize distances longer than 191 metres at that time.
