The Norwegian has excelled with about clocking the best score in both series. In the first he made an excellent jumping from 97m, after which he attended the performance of Sara Takanashi and Yuki Ito.
The Japanese, however, have been found to jump from a lower gate, as a jury decided dimly lit for a lowering, despite the weather conditions were unchanged. Both Japanese have so paid a slower detachment and have scored respectively measures 93 and 91m, earned the second and third provisional position, but with an important gap.
In the decisive round Takanashi has found a great leap from 98m, but could not put pressure to Lundby, who answered big with an even better performance, landing at 99m and closing with a margin of almost 10 points on the leader of the general.
In 3rd position stood Yuki Ito, that even in the second series has realized the third score thanks to 93.5m obtained and good stylistic assessments. The Japanese, however, has accumulated a huge departure from the two athletes who preceded year: 20.5 points and 11.3 from the Norwegian teammate.
In 4th place came Carina Vogt, from a month consistently among the top 8, but could not get on the podium. The World Championship defending champion was the first of a-row of German athletes: Svenja Würth 5th, Daniela Iraschko-Stolz and Katharina Althaus sixth tied, Chiara Hölzl 8 ^. For the Teutonic arrived the nth placings in the top 10, while the Austrian arrived signs of growth than the disappointing competitions in Japan.
Concluded between the best 10 The Slovenian Maja Vtic (9th) and Yuka Seto (10 ^), while Jacqueline Seifriedsberger seems to have lost the enamel of early season, capturing the 14th coin.
Good finish for the blue Elena Runggaldier 15 ^ 17 ^ and Evelyn Insam, the latter at best result of the season. The third Italian in the street, Veronica Gianmoena, however did not collect points coming 38th.
It should be noted as the starters of the race field was smaller than usual, because in just two days will start the junior World Championships in Park City and so many athletes born from 1997 onwards are already in direct US locations. Among the illustrious absent are the blue Manuela Malsiner and Slovenia's Ema Klinec and Nika Kriznar.
