Finale sur le grand tremplin d'Oslo

Pour la seule fois de l'hiver les filles se sont élancés sur un grand tremplin, et pas n'importe lequel. Le fameux édifice d'Holmenkollen qui surplombe la magnifique baie d'Oslo.

...

Pas de surprise pour le dernier concours de l'hiver avec un 30eme succès en carrière pour Sara Takanashi.

Avec deux excellents sauts à 128m et 127m pour un total de 263.8 points, la Japonaise devance l'Américaine Sarah Hendrickson et la Canadienne Taylor Henrich.

Troisième podium de la saison pour Hendrikson, le deuxième pour Henrich.

Léa Lemare 16eme, Julia Clair 17eme, Coline Mattel 27eme.

Daniela Iraschko-Stolz, cinquième du concours, a fait le nécessaire pour gagner son premier globe de sa carrière devant Takanashi et Vogt.

Les réactions :

Sara Takanashi (JPN): "I was looking forward to jumping on the large hill. I’m happy that I managed to make two good jumps here. I made a lot of mistakes this season, but I learned a lot from them. The level of ladies ski jumping is getting higher every year so it’s a pity that we don’t have a lot of competitions. I hope there will be more next season."

Sarah Hendrickson (USA): "It was a very difficult season for me mentally. Physically I worked really hard this summer but it was a matter of trusting myself to get where I am today. It was a great way to finish this winter. I’m very happy with my result. I think all the girls would agree that we are ready for more large hills in the calendar, not just in the final. Hopefully next year there will be some more big hills, because the progress of the ladies ski jumping was really huge."

Taylor Henrich (CAN): "I’m very excited to be on the podium here. It’s my second podium of the season and I wanted to end this season strong. After Falun I was a bit disappointed, because I really wanted to be on the podium there and I was 5th. It’s a pity that I don’t have any teammates right now, but hopefully over the next couple of months there will be some more girls and we can be a team again."
