Qualification Wisla/POL

The form of the Norwegians showing upwards, because Andreas Stjernen jumped with 133 m on the 2nd place at todays qualification. Great! That was the same width like the winner Richard Freitag from Germany. But Andreas had more upwind than Freitag and got points deducted for the better wind conditions. Third became the Slovene Jernej Damjan with 132,5 meters.

Anyway, the team performance is very good: with Johann André Forfang on place 8th (128 meters), Robert Johansson as 11th (125,5 meters) and Anders Fannemel as 12th (126 meters) are four Norwegians under the top fifteen. Yeah!

Only by Tom Hilde (27th, 121,5 meters) and Halvor Egner Granerud (37th, 121 meters) are having still some room for improvement. We`ll see how the two will jump tomorrow.

Last but not least, the 4Hills-Third Daniel-André Tande is prequalified and showed a very good jump on 128,5 meters.

After this great qualification we`re looking forward to tomorrows competition in Wisla. The Trial Round starts at 15:00 and the First Round at 16:00. On Sunday, the 15th at 14:30 is the Qualification and at 16:00 the First Round (all times CET).
