Qualification Oberstdorf/GER

Tonight was a premiere for every athlete, cause everyone did his first jumps on the rebuilted Heini-Klopfer Skiflying Hill. So it was very interesting to see which skijumper get along with the new hill.

And for Robert Johansson it must have been, you could say, love at first sight. Robert did two good jumps on 177 meters and 202 meters. And at the qualification he even showed a jump on 213,5 meters. At the end it was the 3rd place for Johansson.

Andreas Stjernen has shown also two good jumps during the trial rounds: 210 meters and 182,5 meters. But at the qualification only 177,5 meters. It seems that he need some time to take to the new hill. As well as Daniel-André Tande. He jumped on 171 meters and 206,5 meters at the training, and on 175,5 meters at the qualification.

But for sure Daniel-André and Andreas, of course Robert too, will attack in tomorrow`s competition, which starts at 16:00.
