Bitter defeat by force

Stefan kraft failed once again at the Olympic Bakken. In 2018 and 2019, Salzburg did not reach the final, in 2020 it was only enough for 13th place. And this year too, Schwarzacher had to bury all his hopes of an overall victory as 28th at Garmisch.

“I am very satisfied with the jumps, especially since now I can improve myself in the competition. I have to put even more confidence in the jumps, it is about the little things to be on top. Maybe we will have more in the Austrians. Aschenwald said.
