Successful lubrication of skis plays a major role in variable weather conditions.
The fast-changing weather will keep the ski jumpers in particular on tenterhooks until the last minute.
At the Lahti ski stadium, there is no mechanical cooling under the tracks on the 70-metre hill. So it is not yet clear whether you will come down from the jump tower on an ice rink or on the so-called summer track.
Large number of young jumpers
On Saturday 14.1.2023, Lahti will host the Alpine Skiing and Combined Small Hill World Championships. Some of the combined competitors will also jump a special hill race.
On Sunday, January 15, 2023, the Mäkihyppy Cup and Veteran Cup competitions will be held. A total of 117 participants have registered for the competition.
– The future of hill jumping looks good, as no less than 26 jumpers have signed up for the 16-year-old boys’ series, Tervahartiala is happy.
