Prišlič 246, Bartol 252 with a fall on Wednesday's test of the hill

27 jumpers form Slovenia, Austria and Germany tested the (for now) second biggest flying hill on the world in a cloudy weather with light snow conditions. The test stared with one and a half hour delay at 11.30 am. Rožle Žagar was the first to open the hill and he landed at 189 meters. Many of the Slovene boys that followed Rožle improved their personal bests, Ernest Prišlič even landing at 239 meters in the first round and 246 meters in the second round. Tilen Bartol who was flying for the very first time in his career performed brilliantly and even landed at 252 meters which is the second longest flight in the history and half a meter longer than official world record of Andreas Fannemel from Vikersund. Bartol sadly fell at the long distance but was not seriously injured and he walked on his own towards the competitors village.

There were 17 flights over 200 meters, Aleš Hlebanja jumped new Rateče record with 2018 meters, Matic Kramaršič jumped 228 and 216 meters, and debutant on the flying hills Žiga Jelarjumped 214 meters.
