Indeed, in the Teutonic earth "full house" audience never fails. Hope & egrave; the passion of the German public is repaid by a competition worthy of the name.
In fact Klingenthal wind & egrave; often the protagonist and twelve months ago, the FIS wanted at all costs to complete a trial that never should have taken off, with the result of giving birth to a farcical outcome and push athletes like Gregor Schlierenzauer and Anders Bardal renunciation of his jump. & nbsp;
The 36th World Cup men's ski jumping begins in sign dell''incertezza Since & eacute; & Egrave; difficult to identify a clear favorite to win the crystal ball.
The holder of the trophy, the Polish Kamil Stoch played un''estate of ups and downs so & igrave; as the Slovenian Peter Prevc, his main rival in the race for success in the overall standings dell''inverno 2013-2014.
Both should still be competitive to win the World Cup, whose suitors must inevitably writing Gregor Schlierenzauer. The 'Austrian, back from what can & ograve; be considered the worst vintage racing career, he & egrave; said highly motivated to redeem the disappointing recent past by placing as its main objective the own crystal ball which has already & agrave; put his hands twice.
Even Anders Bardal has all the credentials to be able to triumph in the absolute of the World Cup. The thirty-two Steinkjer has competed sparingly during the 'summer, preferring to spend more & ugrave; time with his family, but the experts are ready to swear that we will see the "real" Bardal during the 'winter.
The veteran will be Scandinavian & agrave; for & ograve; a "special observed," so & igrave; as the whole Norwegian team finished in the middle of the controversy in September regarding the 'use of materials (overalls and undergarments) do not comply with regulations. In this regard, it will be & agrave; very interesting to see if the nineteen year old Phillip Sj & ø en, to which is assigned the palm of "biggest improvement" of the season on plastic, will & agrave; able to be confirmed also on snow (regardless of the "aid", the teen & egrave; actually equipped with a blowing technique superfine).
About the new names to keep an 'eye & egrave; Jakub Wolny a sin (a contemporary of Sj & ø en and in turn extremely improved) has injured his right knee in early October. Hope & egrave; to review the pi & ugrave; soon as possible the junior world champion levels settembrini when he could be considered the No. 3 strong Polish team.
There are great expectations for Michael Hayb & ouml; ck has long been considered a potential big circuit but so far remained nell''anticamera the "big" being devoid of "something" needed to complete the final explosion. According to specialists of the twenty-three Linz has made progress and therefore could finally aspire to step onto ugrave & more; top of the podium. In the category of eligible candidates "late bloomer" in 2014 - '' 15 & you can ograve; also ascribe Taku Takeuchi, pure talent so far untapped.
Instead, the "horse-back" pi & ugrave; expected are the German Richard Freitag and Czech Roman Koudelka, both who have had a troubled winter, but the protagonists of evidence summer.
There are serious doubts on the contrary, the three protagonists dell''inverno 2013 - '' 14. Germany's Severin Freund, ranked third in the overall standings and world champion fly, spring & egrave; had to stay still for long due to unspecified problems in the back, however, revealing a worrying decline in technical and Hinzenbach Klingenthal.
Even Thomas Diethart surprising winner of the Tourn & eacute; and 4 trampolines, & egrave; appeared in great difficulty & agrave; from the technical point of view at the end of the summer. Finally, the Japanese Noriaki Kasai, the author last year (at age 41 played) one of the best seasons of his career, he & egrave; seen very little and not & egrave; clear what would be the outlook for 2014 - '' 15.
As for the 'Italy 2014 -' '15 will & agrave; the first season with Paolo Bernardi driving technique. The results have been encouraging the summer, so that the blue team has reported a 3 unit & agrave; its quota after traveling to the minimum (2) for twelve months, and there is every reason why & eacute; the positive trend will continue also during the 'winter.
The Italian team riporr & agrave; their hopes above all on David Bresadola and Sebastian Colloredo. The first twenty-six Trentino, demonstrated in competitions of plastic can become an athlete can get into the points consistently, ambendo also odd placings in the top-15.
The second, twenty-seven of Friuli, in the summer & egrave; back on that level lost in the recent past and may remain at a level similar to that dell''ex nordic combined. Therefore in the house you can see the possibilities Italy & agrave; to have two athletes in a position to conclude with regularity & agrave; during the first 30 positions.
Behind Bresadola Colloredo and the situation is fluid with several athletes are able to play for the highest place in the circuit. In particular, we have seen signs of recovery by Andrea Morassi, which you might & agrave; undoubtedly be competitive on trampolines from imposing profile, and c '' & egrave; curiosity & agrave; to understand what potr & agrave; be the size of the young Frederick Cecon and Daniel Varesco, ongoing, so instead will be fertile ground plant sizes & more ugrave; reduced.
Coming to the location, Klingenthal & egrave; entry in the "tour" of the maximum circuit only recently with the construction of Schwarzbergschanze structure completed in 2006 to replace the old Aschbergschanze, which in January 1986 disput & ograve; un''occasionale race of the World Cup won by the Finnish Matti Nyk & auml; nen.
Sull''attuale trampoline you are held 6 races counting towards the World Cup. The 'only jumper to have imposed more & ugrave; of un''occasione & egrave; Gregor Schlierenzauer, who won in February 2007 and February 2009. Among the athletes in activities & agrave; have a successful Simon Ammann (February 2010), Kamil Stoch (February 2011), Jaka Hvala (February 2013) and Krzysztof Biegun (November 2013).
Schlierenzauer also controls the ranking of the podium with four (two wins combines two third places) due to share 3 by Ammann (a second and third place as well as success). Among those who are still in business & agrave; have a podium on Schwarzbergschanze also Anders Jacobsen, Taku Takeuchi, Andreas Wellinger, Wolfgang Loitzl and Jurij Tepes.
The official record of the trampoline (K125 / HS140) & egrave; held by German Michael Uhrmann that February 2, 2011 & landed ograve; at 146.5 meters. However, a few months later in a race of Continental Cup summer the Norwegian Vegard Hauk & ø Sklett went to 147 meters.
