Spectacular competition of Nordic Combined. Lamparter (AUT) wins in World Cup
Geiger and Frenzel sprint for second place
World Cup Women Mass Start is a show
Hansen is reborn from a fall with a top ski-jump
Johannes Lamparter, just a little older than 20, played “big” during the second day of Nordic Combined World Cup in Val di Fiemme. In the cold morning, his jump was the longest (105.5 m) and unbeaten, second Eric Frenzel (GER), almost sure about his success. In the afternoon, with the 10 km in Lago di Tesero, Lamparter made it clear to everyone. He is the winner today and brings home 100 precious Cup points.
A sparkling hill in the morning in Predazzo, great and icy snow, a little audience was also present. Rankings kept on changing until the end: Lamparter leaves all behind, Frenzel follow with 14’’, the Norwegian Oftebro is just 18’’ behind. In the afternoon, the sun was shining, snow was perfect and temperatures was around zero, getting higher as Lamparter starts. Before the finish of the first lap, he gained 2’’ more, the Germans Frenzel and Geiger struggled to keep Oftebro quiet. Lamparter seems to slow, but he knew Germans were good: he turbocharged, his first World Cup victory is conquered. Finish line with a wild scream and a sweet kiss to his parents.
Among women, Gyda Westvold Hansen is the chosen one. The Norwegian, 20 years old in April 2022, is the first woman winning a World Cup competition in Val di Fiemme. This afternoon, in the cross-country fraction, she almost ruined it all with a fall, yet, she stood up in ski-jumping. The talented Japanese Anju Nakamura finished first in the cross country, preceding Westvold and Hirner, three names to remember. Westvold jumped as her male mates, 101 meters. She won, followed by Nakamura, then Hirner.
