The ski jumping competition in Wisła has started a new season for this sport. Let us remind you that last season, the Crystal Ball went to Kamil Stoch. How will it be this year? One of the favorites will compete for the victory or will we have an unexpected explosion of another player's talent?
Gold for "Good Morning"
Last Saturday was a positive prognosis for Sunday's individual competition. The Poles proved that they are one team and won the first team competition in the World Cup this season in great style. The fight for the 1st place took place between Germany and Poland. Everything became clear in the last jump - Kamil Stoch landed at 129 meters, while Richard Freitag achieved only 123,5 meters.

Golden Klimov
The individual competition took place on Sunday. Unfortunately, none of the Poles managed to stand on the podium. However, the positive news is that he remains in good shape Piotr Zyla, which ultimately placed 6th. Just behind the podium was Kamil Stoch, who lost the fight for 3rd place to Ryoyu Kobayashi by only 0,3 points. Dawid Kubacki was also in the top 10. While a year ago his 8th place would have been a reason for satisfaction, expectations for this jumper are growing. Especially since he is tipped to be Kamil Stoch's successor.
The final positions of the remaining Poles: Jakub Wolny on the 23rd place, Maciej Kot on the 29th place, Stefan Hula on the 38th place.
