The duo is 13th individually before the jump.
– He did not like today. It’s his first championship, but I really think he has proved to me today that he is at the highest level. It was very easy to organize today, it used to be that it was maybe a little too powerful for me. But I came up with an approach that makes it work very well and with the help of the little helpers can ride the obstacles in the most optimal way. It was great today, says Algutson Ostholt.
