Today's competition was a déjà vu of the last Sunday in Klingenthal test, in fact, the top five are the same as then, on top of that in the same positions. The plot, however, has changed: today Prevc has dominated the length and breadth of the opponents.
The smaller of the Kranj brothers killed the race already in the first set, thanks to a spectacular jump of 142.5 meters (over 4.5 HS point!) With a great telemark, then had to administer 10.1 points down on second placed Daniel Andre Tande .
Domen, however, was not satisfied with the excellent first jump, then in the second run landed at 141.5 meters, again the best measure for dispersion, and again tried to telemark, but he failed. However he did re-record the best partial score.
Norway, for its part, has obtained the second best score in both series, without making jumps over the hill size. In the second segment of the race you had to bend of only 0.3 points compared to Prevc. The gaps were relatively large among the top 5 positions, disagree with six days ago.
In third place we are so Stefan Kraft author of the third score in both jumps, finally at the level that pertains to him after the first weekend of light and shadow and the podium in Germany. Afterwards we Kamil Stoch, always of excellent level, but still unable to harpoon the podium in the season.
Fifth, needless to say, came Maciej Kot. Now a regular of the top positions, but still stopped once a 5th place. He will try to bounce back already in the test tomorrow.
Three new products in the top 10 today: Andreas Stjernen confirmed the good feeling shown between yesterday and today, finishing 7th, Michael Hayboeck found a first result of weight (9th), which shows the growth in the course of dall'opening Ruka and Vojtech Stursa proved to be the biggest new entry maximum circuit closing tenth.
Vincent Descombes Sevoie (8th) and Markus Eisenbichler (7th) remain great realities of the new season. For the first came only in the best 10 results (4 of 4), while Germany remains one of the Teutonic better shape, even today the best.
For athletes who are confirmed at high levels, there are some that are already in its downward or Austrian veterans. Andreas Kofler finished in 19 th place, while manuel fettner finished in 23 th position. Evidently they had a form of fear a couple of weeks ago and now the glories appear far.
First top 15 of the season for Robert Johansson (14th), amazingly third overall Norwegian. Good news for the Czech team, who put in a 4 athletes points: besides the aforementioned Stursa, have placed Jakub Janda 20th, Lukas Hlava 26 ° and 29 ° Tomas Vancura. gray situation, however, in Japan with Noriaki Kasai even outside the top 30.
How many things change in just 14 days: Peter Prevc then missed the first race of the season for a fall, albeit without physical consequences, and now is to work hard to get into the points. In jumping, in addition to the physical is also crucial the psychological aspect and now, the holder of the crystal ball, is fighting a bit 'with old ghosts of equally old falls, a bit' with a brother who is capable of inflicting the Beauty of 95.5 points in two jumps.
Today Peter has literally aborted the performance of the second set, taking a totally passive jump, no push and no idea of ​​how to straighten a bad performance. Urge rapid reset!
