On Saturday, the best Pole was, and on Sunday. They both took a distant 29th place, and the best in both competitions was the German, who is the current leader of the World Cup.
“It was another dramatic weekend for Polish jumpers this season. If a group of players who did not make it to the team that will depart for the Olympic Games in Beijing from Willingen in a few days, unfortunately, they looked even worse than during the home World Cup competition in Zakopane. And after them the mood was very bad “-.

And he added: – Before the competition, I had a short meeting with the players. We told ourselves that we do not roll much, but we have to do our best. We have a plan. Everyone has a clear goal for the next few weeks, because it can’t be that way anymore.
– After Zakopane, we were realists. None of these guys scored points at Wielka Krokiew, so we can talk about a small step, although these points might as well not be. We are leaving Titisee-Neustadt behind us and working for the next two months to save this season – Michał Doleżal’s assistant concluded.
The next World Cup competitions will be held in Willingen and will be the last ones before the Olympic Games in Beijing (February 4-20) Dawid Kubacki, Paweł Wąsek and Stefan Hula will go to Germany ..
