Prevc in the form of his life, Hannawald should thank jury a milliok times they screwed Prevc up in Oberstdorf.
Schlieri makes a,break for indefinite time.. is this farewell? Usually people dont come back from something like that. Looks like he is mentally down. IMO carrying through this seasom amd toughen up would have made more sense.

can´t wait for the big hills now...Domen has the perfect style for looooooooooong jumps...seems like it´s gonna be an all Slovenian year this time, only man I see who can beat them at the moment is Gangnes if he gains some form on the big hills...he´s got huge power and the Norwegian feeling on how to fly long distances
great to see Wellinger making his way back up

Domen won't take part in competitions of Ski Flying World Cup (Vikersund and Planica) and WC in Kulm because Goran Janus thinks that he is too young for ski flying |

From all of the Slovenian ski jumpers sans Peter Prevc, Domen is the only on who is relevant - Tepes is appaling, Kranjec is a pale shadow of himself and Semenic and Lanisek are too inconsistent to pass even the qualifying |

I´m not too sure about this...think of Koch the past years...he was nothing until the big hills came, so watch out for Kranjec and Tepes
I´m sorry to say that, but this year might be the first when Kasai doesn´t have enough jumping power for containing for the big wins...sadly

Norway and Germany will get easy medals, and I can't believe that Poppinger will be in Austria's team.. and I have to cheer him on super loud

It's Poppinger's discipline. Let's see what he can do. He's done good sky-flying in the past.
EDIT: There, Poppinger made a good jump at Willingen.

Schlieri is definitely looking like Andy Schleck 2012-2013.He should have continued to race.He has performed great in Bad Mitterndorf(Kulm) in the past years.he should have reaced there.On the other hand Prevc is dominating.Freund is very good as well.
On wednesday Sunby cracked
But today he extends his lead again
And Johaug is not leading in womens
And 1-2 by Boe bros in today's sprint race.

Johaug overtaken Oestberg at the Alpe Cermis climb and won general classification of Tour de Ski. Third place for Heidi Weng. |

Impressive race by Svindal in Wengen today, Reichelt only one to have come close. With Kröll approximately to finish 3rd right now, it's a good day for Austria so far. Right now it's still unclear if the race is to finish tho due to fog.
Kulm's going to be great, Kraft well within distance. Home World Champion would be a great achievement for Kraft. Tomorrow I'll be at the team competition; can't wait to shittalk and trash the german team between my german gf and a friend from Munich.. nothing like a good old pointless feud

Yesterday 1st and 2nd round were awesome, it was first really enjoyable for me competition of this season, Kasai and Prevc are unbelievable. I hope Kubacki will keep place in top 20. |

Peter Prevc is just untouchable.Norway gets a dominating win in teams.Slovenia disappointed me a lot with not even taking a medal.
Pellegrino is untouchable in freestyle sprints in cross country |

Unfortunately we did not go to Kulm because a sudden snowstorm for 30 minutes in Vienna made my gf's car turn around and we barely avoided a crash. Quite some luck there.
We then decided to get wasted at my place and watch ski sport all day. Obviously it was a horrible day with Austrians getting slapped all over the place at Ski Alpine and Skiflying by the Germans and Norwegians sigh

Super-surprising imo! First of all didnt expect all the big nations to blow up like that. Secondly would have thought Dahlmeier would be way stronger than 9 seconds faster as Pidhrushna in the final lap.
And Belarus was just sad. How can you go from first to almost last and lose well over 1.30m in one lap

That chick completely exploded/imploded? In terms of professional country skiing, I have never seen something like that. This was the type of bonking we only see in cycling.

Yup! Never seen this before either. Much remindet me off Jørgen Brink's famous collapse in 2003, although this was worse
And thats true aswell, cross-country athletes barely hits the wall.
