Johannes Rydzek leads the race after the jump in Lillehammer. Samuel Costa 12

This morning in Lillehammer took place on jumping gundersen segment of the first of the weekend, held on the normal hill HS 100. The best score was clocked by Johannes Rydzek, so that will start in the lead in the bottom for the first time in his career.

The German, so far across the season, has made the longest jump of the day (104.5 m), supporting as telemark despite the extent of 4.5 m over the HS. In second position he was placed Akito Watabe, who also him of a superfine jump, which will start with a lead of 14 ''. Then will start Espen Andersen and Eric Frenzel, respectively 23 '' and 24 ''. The duel between the two Germans will presumably be the highlight of the segment on the narrow skis, where we'll see if Frenzel will try to replace the younger teammate. Good performance also for the Austrians Mario Seidl (5 ° to 38 '') and Wilhelm Denifl (8 ° to 52 ''), in addition to Polish Szczepan Kupczak (7 ° to 46 '') which claimed the great quality on the trampoline . Again the excellent team performance of Germany, which as many as 6 three athletes square the first 12, with Terence Weber 39 '' and an interesting train formed by Vinzenz Geiger (53 ''), Björn Kircheisen (56 '') and Fabian Rießle (59 ''). Then immediately 1''01 '' '' will kick off Samuel Costa, 12 ° and only Italian in the race. Blue has made a big leap in quality, so far the best of the season, landing at 96 m. To be reported as the gaps are more content than the last race weekend in Ruka, with all the athletes who will leave within the 2'30 ''. Also historically the basic circuit is fertile ground for comebacks from afar. It should be noted how they were lucky with the wind athletes with very low bib (under 15) and very high (above 34). In fact, in the central part of the competition the wind behind began to blow with greater intensity, exceeding one meter and focusing mainly on giving, giving much trouble to athletes who have jumped at that time. Appointment with the bottom segment scheduled for 14:10 hours.
