Ski Jumping at the Nordic Skiing FIS World Championships 2023

[Monzanator 4,579]

Maren Lundby 139.5 from a lower gate in Round 1. Hand down on snow but the Slovenian judge of all didn't see it and gave 16,5 pts

[Monzanator 4,579]

Alexandria Loutitt 134.5 from lower gate than Lundby and they share the lead...

[hckošice 15,029]

with enormous chance of World champion title or 4th place

 

Loutitt & Lundby tied leaders after 1st round 4.9 points ahead of Althaus and 5.3 of Maruyama. Stroem just behind 6.3 points of the leaders

It's been a gate dancing farse again, let's see if Loutitt embraces mentally this position as she will be the last to jump. Hopefully she does

[Monzanator 4,579]

Lundby prevents the gold sweep for Althaus! Only Loutitt to go...

[Monzanator 4,579]

She's DOOOOONEEEEE ITTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Alexandria Loutitt is World Champion!!!

[Monzanator 4,579]

Best result for ski jumping in years, I always cheer for Westman and Canada to shake up the order, I picked Loutitt for bronze on NH IIRC, I didn't expect she could win gold here against the Althaus/Pinkelnig might but she wins LH gold by over 10 points

Not bad for a team that has no funding, practice facilities or anywhere for kids to learn the sport.

Just a crazy achievement by  Loutitt. This sport gets no support and no coverage in Canada. This team is really doing it on their own, that they could produce a world champion is insane.

By God Watson, Canada can fly!   First ever medal at WC, men or women. Imagine, that random Olympic medal being the turning point for these and upcoming successes.
