Decisive was the first series: the athlete of Zakopane has found a favorable moment to jump, with more than half a meter of head wind, and has performed in the best landing at 135.5 meters (1.5 point more than HS), obtaining excellent evaluations from judges. The margin on the second, Domen Prevc, was 5.8 lengths, decisive optic final victory. In fact, the second performance was not as level as the first: a jump of 128 meters is elegantly twisted in administering the partial advantage of a arrembante Daniel Andre Tande finally second. Fundamental issues were linked to style, where the Polish has earned five more than the Norwegian. Tande has accused a final gap of 1.2 lengths Stoch, with a completely reversed race leitmotiv: a first performance by 5 ^ provisional square the apparently excluded from the victory speech, however, a second stun beauty, making a jump from record 134.5 meters (with a grin telemark), caused him to make the 'usual' comeback. At only one-tenth the Norwegian twenty-two we find the other great star of the season, Domen Prevc: author of the second jump in both rounds, confirmed the good feeling with the trampoline named after Adam Malysz, therefore remains the regret for the race madcap yesterday. Even today he would to complain a little bit, especially on the ratings of the judges of the second jump of Tande: in fact were very discordant, so much so that he had a valid 18.5 (rather generous) as well as two 17. Some distance away from the summit we find Stefan Kraft, who accused 10.9 points from the Slovenian teenager. He also was the author of a good comeback from provisional seventh place, thanks to a second performance of 129.5 meters, in a time not easy with the wind. These performances are not to be thrown away, but from time to time is too extreme output from the tooth, little problem that could be decisive in the fight of the general classification of the maximum circuit. Another fifth place for Maciej Kot, very good in the first set as psychologically locked in the second. They closed the top 10 athletes who somehow have amazing results in their performance. Sixth for Richard Freitag who equaled the best result obtained in Bischofshofen. There are 4 placings in the top 10 from Engelberg to date, attractive return in perspective the second part of the season, including world. Ex aequo with the Teutonic find Johann Andre Forfang, finally to a convincing level in a year it began on the wrong foot. Following Gregor Schlierenzauer (!), Up jump after jump, the best result of the last two competitive seasons. For both there is to report the excellent moment that they found in the first jump, with strong headwinds. Bravi them to take advantage. Robert Johansson and Karl Geiger were the protagonists of great comebacks in the second segment of the race and concluded respectively in 9th and 10th place, from 13 ^ and 20 ^ provisional. Who has struggled enough it has been Hayboeck Michael, with problems in the detachment timing, often too late. He finished 15th, confirming the ups and downs that dall'opening Ruka. not an easy day for Markus Eisenbichler and Andreas Stjernen, respectively 22 Â° and 24 Â°. They missed out on points the fourth and fifth fastest Polish: Dawid Kubacki was placed 37th in the race, while Stefan Hula did not pass the qualification rock. Both penalized by the difficult conditions and unable to get out of it with dignity. 'A breath' is what has been lacking on both the Blues: David Bresadola has successfully passed the qualification and the next competition he missed the entrance into the top 30 for only 2 tenths of a point, finishing 31 Â°; Sebastian Colloredo, however, was the second excluded from the race. For both there is optimism for the rest of the season, also coupled to the excellent results from the Continental Cup. The general classification of the World Cup sees enclosed in 82 points the beauty of 3 athletes: the head is Stoch with 833 lengths, followed by Tande (767) and Domen Prevc (751). Some distance away we find Kraft to 640.
