Vince fact Peter Prevc, dominating as it did throughout the & rsquo; year. The 23 year-old from Kranj is imposed in both series reaching respectively 238 and 241.5 meters with telemark in both cases with an ease & agrave; impressive.
There are more & ugrave; adjectives to describe the excessive power of this extraordinary talent, so we let the numbers speak. Peter Prevc, during 2015-16, has shot down the following records:

Peter Prevc, Robert Kranjec and Johann Andre Forfang: these are the three most & ugrave fliers; strongest in the world, so as to exchange positions on the podium in all three individual races held in these days in Planica and to be closed in this order also ranking specialty & agrave; flight.
Disappointed of the day, if cos & igrave; you can memorize options define, & egrave; Noriaki Kasai. The Norwegian 43-year old, third after the first set, you & egrave; had to give up on the second jump of Forfang, being overtaken only 1.2 points and giving up cos & igrave; to touch up its most & ugrave jumper records; elderly person to get on the podium of a race of the World Cup.
Home Norway also makes Kenneth Gangnes party: fifteenth after the first set, the 26 year old is a jump from 239 meters with telemark allowing him to move up to fifth position and to defend the third in the overall standings from & rsquo; Michael Hayb & ouml attack; ck in the end the sixth.
