With the World Cup Lahti passed on file, in Oslo it turns the struggle for the conquest of the World Cup. The yellow bib is worn by Kamil Stoch by a margin of 60 points on Stefan Kraft.

NEWS 'The inertia but appears from the Austrian that, taking into account the double world champion gold, has a sequence of nine consecutive podium finishes. However, three of the six remaining matches will be played on flight trampolines, theoretically more favorable to Salzburg. Thus the struggle between the two is at the moment very open and very uncertain. It should be noted that in this season all Norwegian competitions will also be part of an event called Raw Air, with its own final standings. The event is inspired by the Tour of 4 trampolines, since the absolute ranking list will be drawn up on the basis of scoring all jumps performed. When talking about ALL the jumps, they mean it all. In fact, unlike the Tour, in addition to 8 race also we will count the scores of the qualifying jumps and even jump the athletes will perform in the two team event planned. Translated, should not be canceled, the final ranking of Raw Air will be determined by the sum of the scores of 16 jumps, to be made in 10 days. HISTORY The Holmenkollen skifestival, or Holmenkollrennene, is an event established in 1892 consisting of a series of competitions belonging to all Nordic disciplines played on the hill near Oslo. The special jumping however had to wait nearly four decades to find a place within the event, which has become in effect an integral part since 1933. Since then there are 9 winters "holes" for jumpers, five of them due to World War II (1941-1945). Three other occasions (1954, 1994, 2016) have instead been the bad weather conditions (wind or fog) prevent the competitions. Finally in 2009 he has not played any evidence because the trampoline did not exist. Sull'Holmenkollenbakken was in fact being built the present futuristic structure (K120 - HS 134), which has taken the place of the previous one. Notwithstanding 84 years of history, the purpose of the presentation will be taken into consideration only the so-called top-level races, ie those included in the program of the Olympic Games, the World Cup and in the calendar of the World Cup. Until today in Oslo have been held 41 individual. 35 of them have had value for the World Cup, 7 for the World Cup (1930, 1966, 1982, 2011) and one for the Olympic Games (1952). The sum of the subdivision says 43 because the world championship of 1982 tests were also awarded points for the Crystal Ball. It should be noted, however, as 5 of the forty-one races will not be played sull'Holmenkollenbakken, but on smaller Midtstubakken, built on the other side of the hill. In primary races are 28 athletes to have imposed in this prestigious context. In this regard the Polish Adam Malysz became a legend thanks to five successes (1996, 2001, 2003, 2006, 2007) collected in his career. To give an idea of ​​the magnitude of the thirty-eight Wisla, consider that throughout history dell''Holmenkollen Ski Festival (then from 1933 onwards) is the only man to have exceeded the share of the three statements. However, two years ago a contemporary jumper has earned a prominent place among the great of the event. German Severin Freund has indeed touched share three consecutive victories, becoming the second athlete to achieve it after the Norwegian Reidar Andersen (1936, 1937, 1938). Of course, in 2015 you were played two matches and this has undoubtedly helped the Bavarian; Filotto however, remains significant. Also including the Teutonic are five active athletes to be climbed to the top step of the podium dell''Holmenkollenbakken. It is Gregor Schlierenzauer (2008, 2011, 2013), Simon Ammann (2002, 2007, 2010), Noriaki Kasai (1999) and Piotr Zyla (2013). The Japanese, however, has only won on the previous configuration of the trampoline, demolished in 2008. The official record of the current plant belongs all''austriaco Andreas Kofler landed 141 meters (7 over the 'Hs), 5 March 2011. However, a few weeks earlier, on 8 February 2011, Anders Jacobsen went so far to 142.5 during a Norwegian internal competition.
