With jumps on 128.5m and 125.0 m the Austrian Michael Hayböck took his second COC victory in this young season ahead of Jernej Damjan, who made the longest jump of the day on 131m, and Nejc Dezman from Slovenia. It was a good day for Austria and Slovenia as they both dominating the competition. The first five places all went to this both countries as Anze Lanisek from Slovenia could jump on rank 4 and the Austria Manuel Fettner reached the fith place just 0.6 points behind Lanisek. Also the hosts can be satisfied with their results as Anssi Koivuranta with his rank six could reach a place in the Top 10 and also Sami Heiskanen (12), Kalle Keituri (14), Jarkko Määttä (16) and Ville Larinto (30) collected points. Daniel Wenig and old hand Martin Schmitt on Rank 9 and 10 were the two best jumpers from the German team which showed another good team results as they could place six jumpers in the Top 30. The chances for Schmitt to participate at the Four Hills Tournament are really good now. As good the Polish are at the World Cup in the COC they only have Stefan Hula under the Top30 and also the Italians had a bad day with no jumper in the points. In contrast the only Swiss athlete Gabriel Karlen has a reason to celebrate as he colleceted his first COC-Points ever on Rank 28. 1. Michael Hayböck 274.4 2. Jernej Damjan 271.3 3. Nejc Dezman 265.5 4. Anze Lanisek 260.4 5. Manuel Fettner 259.8 6. Anssi Koivuranta 258.2 7. Florian Altenburger 258.1 8. Robert Hrgota 254.5 9. Daniel Wenig 252.7 10. Martin Schmitt 252.5
