Eric Frenzel won the first leg of the Triple Nordic Combined

As expected Eric Frenzel won success in the first leg of the Triple Nordic Combined Seefeld, unpublished multistage event of the Nordic Combined.

The German had no trouble in coming back onto HÃ¥vard Klemetsen, author of the best score in the segment jump, after which he removed on the bridge that leads to the final straight. Klemetsen has not responded and has slipped to fourth place, being overtaken by Magnus Moan, second, and Tino Edelmann, third. At least the Scandinavian managed to defend against Johannes Rydzek. Excellent test of the Americans with Bill Demong and Bryan Fletcher sixth eighth. In the midst of their Japanese Akito Watabe, back from a'' flu, and behind them the French Jason Lamy-Chappuis, ninth. Alessandro Pittin concluded 16th gaining much ground in the first half of the race. No other blue finished in the points, but at least all four Italians have finished in the top 50 and will take part in tomorrow's stage where we will review then also Samuel Costa, Lukas Runggaldier and Armin Bauer. Instead eliminated the Polish Pawel Slowiok, therefore the'' Italy is very close to the certainty of obtaining the quota of 5 athletes to the Olympic Games in Sochi. The test today awarded half the points for the World Cup, which sees then Frenzel increase the overall standings to 503 points ahead of taking Lamy-Chappuis (376), Akito Watabe (373), Kokslien (371) and Klemetsen (317).
