The competition for the gold medal was hard fought, with the team formed by Ziga Jelar, Tilen Bartol, Aljaz Osterc and Bor Pavlovcic contending success with Germany. At the end of the first set the Slovenians managed to precede the Teutonic by 8.7 points, despite the lackluster performance of Osterc, the first time at the start in Park City as nonpartisan in the individual.
In the second set the German Martin Hamann, Tim Fuchs, Felix Hoffmann Schmid and Constantin have caught up by clocking the best score, but had to be content with the silver medal by 3.3 points.
The fight was restricted to the success of these two nations, because the rest of the world has paid significantly more duty. In fact, already after the first half Japan, Poland and Austria, enclosed in little more than 5 points, had a gap greater than 30 lengths off the pace.
Finally to win to win the bronze medal was Austria, consisting of Markus Rupitsch, Mika Schwann, Clemens Leitner and Janni Reisenauer, dragged from convincing performance by the athlete deployed in the first rotation. The Rot-Weiß-Rot team in the second race segment has recovered the few points that separated her from the Japanese, managing to precede them by just 6/10.
Japan has concluded, therefore, 4th, missing a medal by a neck. It should be noted the remarkable performance of Yuken Iwasa in the first half of the race, able to exploit the strong head wind to land at 97.5m, best day measure.
The Russian Maksim Sergeev has reached the same extent in similar conditions, however, fell to the ground and relegating Russia in 9th place.
Poland was placed 5th, but it remains the regret for the third failure due to the fall of Dominik Kastelik. The Szczyrk athlete has so lost about twenty points on the judges' evaluations, which would quietly earned the bronze medal as the final detachment from Austria was only 4.4 points.
Sixth Finland, before the Czech Republic in world junior champion Viktor Polasek. The athlete in Nove Mesto, like two days ago, created by far the best performance of the day.
Norway has sadly closed 12th and final because of disqualification for irregular suit Jesper Ødegaard, losing the chance to try to fight for the medals.
The last race scheduled for the special jump to junior World Cup is scheduled in the night between Sunday and Monday, when it will stage the race in mixed teams.
