Richard Freitag wins exciting ski flying competition
Local hero Richard Freitag won the exciting event in Oberstdorf by only 0.3 points! The German reached 409.8 points and was followed by Andreas Stjernen (409.5 points) and Gregor Schlierenzauer (409 points).
Richard Freitag captured the lead already after his first flight on 209 m. In the final the German posted a jump on 206.5 m and waited in suspense for the overall result. At the end, the 21-year old could celebrate his second World Cup win in front of his home crowd.
"It already went well in training and in the qualification. I think that I achieved this result because we were working really hard over the last couple of weeks. I hope that this will also be a boost for the World Championships. Now I'm looking forward to tomorrow. Everyone will enjoy the jumps again, but many teams are jumping very well right now. Winning a ski flying competition here in front of the home crowd is a good feeling", told Freitag.
Andreas Stjernen (205.5 and 212 m) came in close behind the winner with a total of 409.5 points. The Norwegian lost to the German by the tiny margin of only 0.3 points, but he achieved his first podium result in the World Cup. "It was a great day, honestly I'm a bit surprised that I landed on the podium. This hill is great, you are not high over the knoll and that's good for me. I have to try to achieve such good results also on normal hills. If we jump well as a team tomorrow then we have a realistic chance to win the Team Tour."
Gregor Schlierenzauer continues his streak of third places. With a jump on 206.5 m he could move up from the fourth to third in the final round and repeated his result from Klingenthal. "It was a really nice ski flying competition today. My first jump was not so good, the second one was better. We will give our best again on Sunday, even if Slovenia already has a good lead and the Norwegians are also doing well."
Besides the overall World Cup leader, also the other Austrian jumpers scored World Cup points on Saturday. Stefan Kraft finished eleventh (199 and 205.5 m; 390.8 points), his more experienced teammates, Wolfgang Loitzl (15th) and Martin Koch (19th) were also in the Top 20. Michael Hayboeck finished 27th.
