The German team is 0.3 points short of bronze after the cancellation

The Austrians Jan Hörl and Stephan Embacher won gold. Silver went to Pawel Wasek and Kacper Tomasiak from Poland, bronze went to the Norwegian duo Johann Andre Forfang and Kristoffer Eriksen Sundal.

The competition was canceled in the current third and final round due to heavy snowfall, so the result was counted after two rounds. The German duo was only 0.3 points short of bronze.

Raimund will still have fond memories of the Winter Games. The 25-year-old traveled to Italy without ever having won the World Cup. He goes home with gold.

Raimund’s triumph distracts a little from the otherwise disappointing ski jumping competitions from a German perspective. Neither the men nor the women made it onto the podium in any other competitions. The last time there was only one medal at the Winter Games for German ski jumpers was in Canada in 2010. At that time, Martin Schmitt’s team won silver in the team competition.

The Super Team was held for the first time in the Val di Fiemme winter games. Instead of four athletes, as in the traditional team competition, each nation was only represented by two athletes. The jumpers from the best nations each completed three jumps.
