The skiflying in Harrachov …

…was more characterized by bad weather conditions than by good competitions. On Saturday it everything seemed to be well because in the trial round Lukas, as well as other athletes like Thomas Morgenstern (AUT) for example, showed good jumps.
The competition started according to plan, but was cancelled before the last six jumpers had the chance to take their turn. So the start gate was changed and all athletes had to jump again. That was a quite good chance for Lukas to improve on his performance. But again, after a few jumps, the competition was totally cancelled and delayed to the early Sunday.
Winner was the Finn Janne Ahonen. Lukas finished the competition this day at 110.7 points as 37^th.
The competition on Sunday was cancelled as well due to the delays of the first competition.

Lukas about this weekend: I think I had good jumps, only the weather was bad.
