Wind cancels PCRs in Otepää
Dec 10, 2021·Nordic Combined
After a two year break, the FIS Nordic Combined World Cup finally returned to Otepää.
According to the schedule, the Official Training as well as the women's and men's PCR should take place on the Tehvandi HS97 at noon today.
However, the wind thwarted the Estonian organizer's bill. First, the women's training at 11:00 (EET) had to be canceled, then the men started their training punctually according to the schedule at 11:45 (EET).
After 8 athletes, who had to leave the bar again and again due to repeated wind interruptions, a decision had to be made. Therefore, the jury decided to cancel all jumping events of the day.
The Official cross-country training happened in the Tehvandi Staadium as planned at 15:30 (EET).
At 17:00 (EET), another jury meeting took place, to decide on a possible implementation of the trainings and PCRs this evening. Unfortunately, the conditions still didn't allow any kind of Ski Jumping.
Therefore all Official Trainings and PCRs were officially cancelled for today.
The schedule for tomorrow stays the same:
Women's Official Training: 8:30 (EET)
Men's Official Training: 9:15 (EET)
Men's SJ Competition: 10:30 (EET)
Women's SJ Competition: 12:00 (EET)
