Dawid Kubacki started another weekend of the Ski Jumping World Cup as befits the leader of the general classification. A jump of 139.5 meters in the first training round secured him the first place ahead of Halvor Egner Granerud (137 meters) and Timi Zajc (140 meters).
Overall, Poles did quite well in this series. The results of Kamil Stoch were surprising – ninth place after a jump of 130 meters in the worst conditions of the whole series and Aleksander Zniszczoł – tenth place after an attempt at 136.5 meters.
The 15th Piotr Żyła (131 meters) and the 26th Paweł Wąsek (127.5 meters) performed a little worse, and the jump of 46. Jakub Wolny (121 meters) and the disastrous attempt of 55. Tomasz Pilch (111.5 meters) were disappointing. meter).
Kubacki as befits the leader of the World Cup. He’s back in a big way
And Kubacki did not stop. In the second training series he flew even further – up to 143 meters. It was enough to beat Daniel Andre Tande (141 meters) and again Halvor Egner Granerud (136.5 meters).
The top ten Poles are already missing. Kamil Stoch (132.5 meters) was in thirteenth position, Piotr Żyła (127.5 meters) was 23rd, Aleksander Zniszczoł (130 meters) was 30th, Jakub Wolny (127 meters) was 33rd, Paweł Wąsek (125 meters) was 34th .5 meters), and only 52. Tomasz Pilch (118 meters).

In the third of Thursday’s series, the Poles had very variable luck with the conditions. For the third time in a row, the best Dawid Kubacki (138 meters) and the fourth Piotr Żyła (133 meters), who had strong gusts of wind in their backs, did an excellent job. 38. Jakub Wolny (121 meters) and 26. Paweł Wąsek (123.5 meters) also jumped in the wind close to a meter per second at the back of the hill.
The seventh Kamil Stoch (135 meters) and the sixteenth Aleksander Zniszczol (128 meters) scored slightly better. Again, he failed completely, and here the conditions did not have much to say, 54. Tomasz Pilch (113 meters).
