This PCR appeared as one of the most simple from the beginning of the season, the only data 53 registered athletes. The concomitant of the Continental Cup competitions in Klingenthal, in fact, they did hijack several athletes on the minor circuit, chasing the additional numbers for the next period of the World Cup. In this context, Andersen has imposed lengths of 2.4 (exchange rate 10 '' on the narrow skis) on the landlord Mario Seidl. Fundamental was the bonus is received, linked to the lowering of two poles of departure, thanks to the measurement achieved within the 95% point of the HS. The best day of measurement was made to record from Takehiro Watanabe, landed 97 meters. The various compensation criteria, however, relegated to third place at one tenth the Austrian. The strategy used by the winner, tied to the pole start, was followed by other athletes: David Pommer (4 th) and Costa (8th) risked less (a unit lower), so they also collected the bonus; Johannes Rydzek (25th) and Eric Frenzel (35th) mimicked in all respects Andersen, but they have 'beaten' the nose landing point only in K area, so no additional points. Well behaved son Fabian Riessle and Akito Watabe, respectively piazzatisi the 6th and 7th position. Even veteran Bjoern Kircheisen made his decent job, valsogli the eleventh coin. Recall the absences of the illustrious Jarl Magnus Riiber and Eero Hirvonen, struggling with their health problems and physical. They are joined by the non-presence of Magnus Moan, he appeared in great crisis on the trampoline in the past weeks. In all there are in the Austrian resort two other Italians, in addition to the excellent Costa: Alessandro Pittin managed to overcome the obstacle of the qualifying, winning the 43rd place, while Runggaldier has not gone beyond the 52nd and last position, given the disqualification Lukas Greiderer, behind Bernhard Flaschberger. Noteworthy are the gaps that exist between tight to all positions: between Andersen and Terence Weber (10th) there are about thirty seconds, between the Norwegian and the 30th (Szczepan Kupczak) 1 exact minute and 50 Â° (Adam Loomis) only pays 2 'abundant in today's winner. So we expect the usual trap that Ramsau! The appointments are set for tomorrow at 11.30 with jumping off the trampoline segment HS 98 and at 14.00 with gundersen 10 km.
