Hopefully this will be the first and last snowless weekend we have. Frankly i would take having no starts at all, instead of this charade.

 

Good win for Kubacki and Poland i guess, after his disastrous last season. Slovenia on the other hand nowhere to be seen.

Yeah, I think the Greenie fanatics are coming for artificial & warehoused snow.  It’ll kill the sport.

How was this included in the World Cup calendar? It makes no sense to me, this should be a Summer Grand Prix event if you don't have any snow. It's not a winter sport if it's all green.

Correct. Even an old-timer like Apoloniusz Tajner (ex-HC & boss of Polish federation) said this week that he thinks in 20 years time there will be no ski jumping on snow anymore

It was a FIS experiment, the inrun was frozen so it's different as the SGP, it's an hybrid event  On paper, there should have been two synthetic races, but Germany refused to host the race as Titisee-Neustadt had already stored the snow.

Nah, it was a commercial move from the FIS. They simply wanted to have fewer races at the same time as the World Cup

Westman also flies today. Too bad that every time you throw at least 3-4 points on the landing

[Gianlu33 5,915]

Frist podium EVER for Sweden in women's ski jumping Sadly she lost the silver with two horrific landing, she should works really hard on it.

[Monzanator 5,072]

Yeah, Westman has one of the worst landings out there and always gives up style points BUT she can only improve on that!

 

First podium for in ski jumping World Cup since March 1992!!!
