I love the nordic combination competition today ^^
I'm so happy that the norwegian guys are back now. I was not so optimistic after the jumping. After all Ronny jumped quite well again, and the Ösis, Jason and Anssi were there too. Espen could jump better, far more better. But i've thought, ok, Petter and Magnus can go together, and, INDEED. Made and succeeded, congratulations.
To be honest, I even didn't believe they could make it at 10 km, Bill Demong was strong in the last days, but good that Magnus went through.
Another suprise was Jan. I was really shocked when i saw how he went with Haseney and Kircheisen, totally crazy! And Tommy's first A-cup, hehe, not bad on the hill, but he can do more with his skiing.
edit: I just checked the cross-country time
1. Bill Demong
2. Magnus Moan
3. Petter Tande
4. Bjoern Kircheisen
5. Sebastian Haseney
6. Jan Schmid
7. Hannu Manninen
so, Hannu seems still not to be that fit, and Anssi either. And the norwegians did really good.
Then four hills tournament, Vierschanzentournee, Hoppuka. Winner today : Thomas Morgenstern.
Ahh, it's always something special to watch the 4hills. Morgi wins as the most people expected. But the competition is really beautiful. Sorry for Bjoern Einar, but ppl can do nothing with a fall. It's also good to know it's not so bad with Andi Kofler.
But I'm really scared by the Ösi-boys! And they are still so young. Youth gone Wild!
I still remember when I met Gregor the first time, he was so shy and couldn't understand English (laugh).
But i'm not so sure that Morgi will win the whole ranking. Janne seemed to be unbeatable 3 years ago but he failed in Bischofshofen. Ah, how fast the time goes!
So let's wait and see. Tomorrow comes already Garmisch-Partenkirchen and the new olympic hill.
