Daniel Tschofenig made a big leap towards the big crystal ball at the World Cup in Lahti. The Carinthian set up his lead Jan Hörl on 114 points – this is a convenient points cushion for the remaining two individual competitions in Planica.
Although Tschofenig only landed in seventh place in Lahti, he was allowed to feel like a winner. Team colleague Jan Hörl was in the first round blown out of the wind And just made it into the final as 30th. There, Salzburg only succeeded in cosmetics in the result (15th place).
Even without the top 2 in the overall World Cup, the ÖSV team presented itself strongly. Stefan Kraft only had to give up the Slovenian Anze Lanisek. Manuel Fettner finished fourth, Maximilian Ortner.
