The veteran of the canton of St. Gallen will be assisted by three teammates, on which c''è, some more and some less, the 'attention of the Special jumping circuit. In summary, we will have at the start of Thursday's qualifying November 24 the following athletes:
Simon Ammann (1981) Deschwanden Gregor (1991) KARLEN Gabriel (1994) Peier Kilian (1995)
Great interest shall come upon Gregor Deschwanden and Kilian Peier, for several reasons. The first is called upon to undertake a definitive change of pace in his career, picking up the 'legacy of Ammann; acclaimed change from divrese seasons, but it never really happened. The second is to demonstrate the quality shown up in the summer also in the maximum circuit of snow. common task will be to collect as many points as possible, to keep safe the four pectoral stemming from the World Ranking List and maybe get to have the third-expenses-paid athlete of the FIS.
The primary task requested by the twenty-Vallee du Joux has been failed by the great exception, namely Luca Egloff. He has lost all competitiveness now for a year, or since the end of the season on plastic 2015. The place he was blown by Gabriel Karlen, returned to full capacity after un''annata of forced break due to an injury.
Others were excluded Pascal Kaelin, present a few seasons in the team A, but never able to compete consistently in the maximum circuit, and the two representatives from Team B Tobias Birchler and Andreas Schuler. All these athletes will begin, probably, the season of the Continental Cup, only to be at the start in the pre-Christmas competitions in Engelberg.
