Ny dommer dømte vekk gamle drakter.
This is what the article says (roughly):
It was Miran Tepeš who decided the suits were too low (crotch length) Now it's most important to find out what exactly led to the disqualification and why the suits were okay just last season but not now.
Good suits were one detail which led to the success of the Norwegian team in the past, but they were always according to the rules but of course close to the limit of what is allowed. The team was very successful but at the same time avoided disqualifications. The strategy was never to risk a DSQ but rather have a little bit more material on the suits.
So now the two DSQ came as an even bigger surprise right before the start of the new season. They considered the competition as training, to see if everything is okay again. Both Robert and Daniel were good in the training, even another reason not to risk a DSQ because of the suit.
Last time, Miran Tepeš disqualified 9 of 40 jumpers, but the Norwegians didn't compete - so now they had to pay for that this time.
Sondre Ringen had to have his suit measured three times and got a warning for 0,2 cm missing in crotch length.
Apparently Tande's waistband was too high and even trying to readjust the suit (both by him and by Tepeš) didn't satisfy Tepeš so Tande got disqualified. But Tande didn't say at the time that he was wearing an old jumping suits that he had worn a lot last winter and never had had any problems with when it was checked. It hasn't been altered and everything is the way it was before (crotch length, waistband).
[It is speculated that maybe the two got disqualified because the Norwegian team didn't compete in some of the SGP competitions.]
Clas Brede Bråthen said they are confused now and will try to understand why the suits were dismissed.
