Even now, the Slovenian & egrave; shown to a class to s & eacute; creating two separate jumps sublime and inflicting heavy detachments to all opponents who again have not been able to counter an athlete is obviously in a state of grace.
In particular, the second series has provided a spectacle dazzling with a continuous growing represented by a series of jumps neighborhood Hs or even beyond, whose apotheosis & egrave; was the final performance of the winner landed at 142.5 meters, just 50 cm from & rsquo; longstanding record of the trampoline.
Moreover, just this performance, allowed the twenty-three of Kranj to achieve the best score in both races, winning accordingly in 7 of the 8 race series played in & rsquo; learning Tourn & eacute; e. It is an absolute record.
Unfortunately there are no comprehensive statistical data about the distant past of the event, and & egrave; impossible to establish whether it is a single record or detained in cohabitation with others. Certainly no one has done better because & eacute; Also Sven Hannawald, author of Grand Slam in 2001- & rsquo; 02, had excelled in five sets.
Anyway, the 64th edition passer & agrave; history for the & rsquo; striking firm Peter Prevc which becomes the second Slovenian to triumph in Vierschanzentournee alongside his name to that of Primoz Peterka, winner in 1996- & rsquo; 97. It is notable as it is the second time in toto for the young Central European nation because & eacute; prior to its independence had never even set as part of the Yugoslav Federation.
What's more 1139.4 points represent the absolute record in the 64 year history of Tourn & eacute; e. It is beating the record set by Wolfgang Loitzl in 2008- & rsquo; 09 (1123.7).
However, with this statement of the jumper & rsquo; Gorenjska strips definitely of & rsquo; aura of & ldquo; & rdquo placed great; resulting from the fact that you have obtained many prestigious results without & ograve; never hit the full success. Before today its board included a silver and a bronze Olympic, one silver and one bronze world championship, a bronze at the World Championships in flight and two second places in the overall standings of the World Cup (one with the same points as the winner of the Sphere crystal).
Now, with the conquest of the legendary Vierschanzentournee, Prevc has finally broken the & ldquo; & rdquo curse; who wanted him unable to establish itself in a Major competition. Given the young age & agrave; of the subject, and especially the superiority & agrave; it enjoys in & rsquo; current winter, not & egrave; except that other satisfactions like to come here at the end of March, maybe starting right from the World Cup flight scheduled in ten days.
Probably no change of wind direction that favored extremely Severin Freund and Michael Hayb & ouml; ck in the second series of Oberstdorf, Slovenian would accomplish the Grand Slam, that would have won all four races of the same Tourn & eacute; e. However, the ski jumping & egrave; one outdoor sports and the change of weather conditions is part of the game. & Nbsp;
Just the German and the & rsquo; Austrian Prevc to have company on the podium today and in the final standings of the event. The Bavarian today & egrave; expressed on superlative levels and in the second race has passed in turn point Hs (141), but despite a performance by applause nothing has been against the big rival.
Germany must therefore postpone again the & rsquo; meeting with success, now absent from 2001- & rsquo; 02, winter of the historic Grand Slam Sven Hannawald. Anyway Freund reported the German movement on the podium of the final eight years after Michael Neumayer, third in 2008- & rsquo; 09, and its square d & rsquo; honor is the best result of a Teutonic from & rsquo; vintage 2002- & rsquo; 03 when a close second was just Hannawald.
About podiums, the twenty-seven did not win the Tourn & eacute; and despite finishing in the top three in all the stages. L & rsquo; event not happened for 22 years and, then as now, riguard & ograve; a German. In 1993- & rsquo; 94 Jens Wei & szlig; flog won in Oberstdorf, arriv & ograve; second in Garmisch and Innsbruck before ending third in Bischofshofen. However in the final standings of the event he had to bow down to 8 points to Norwegian Espen Bredesen. For PI & ugrave; Freund closes Tourn & eacute; and with 1112.9 points, scoring more & ugrave; highest ever achieved by a runner.
It stops in 7 consecutive wins of the Philoctetes & rsquo; Austria who must collect the first defeat since 2008. L & rsquo; event was somehow announced after considering the difficulty & agrave; current movement, however Hayb & ouml; ck you & egrave; become the protagonist of a Tourn & eacute; and solid and & egrave; expressed its limitations. One wonders if the record set in the past years can be beat in the future considering how, before this sequence, no country had exceeded the three statements in a row. & Nbsp;
Remains in the cold Norway, remained off the podium of Tourn & eacute; and as Kenneth Gangnes & ndash; fifth today & ndash; He lost the final sprint with the gi & agrave; quoted Hayb & ouml; ck. Few surprises in the top ten today where they found space, among others, the & rsquo; idol Stefan Kraft & ndash; fourth and author of the best race of the season - the revived Domen Prevc (sixth), which reported a sharp one Tourn & eacute; and so far low-key, and Simon Ammann pi & ugrave; brilliant of & rsquo; winter, eighth and once again penalized by not supporting the telemark.
Not news to see in the neighborhoods of the standings Johann Andre Forfang, seventh, Noriaki Kasai, ninth, and Daiki Ito, tenth.
The list of disappointments of the day & egrave; led by Anders Fannemel. Unable to record in both series, the Norwegian could only finish eighteenth also slipping back in the final standings of Tourn & eacute; and where, on the eve of today's race, occupied the sixth place. Worse did Kamil Stoch, whose problems is peeling off not seem to come to a solution. Even the Polish & egrave; He was defeated in the match by Jan Matura and did not gain access to the points. & Nbsp;
The overall standings of the World Cup sees Peter Prevc take off with 924 points against the 719 of Freund, of the 595 Gangnes, 487 of Hayb & ouml; ck and 452 of Forfang.
