Favorite ski jumping hills

Here you can see another video from Rozle’s jump!

Rozle Zagar was the first man who jumped on the new flying hill in Planica! He landed safely on 169. m!  The first who jumped over 200 m was Andraz Pograjc - 213! Till not the longest jump was made by Ernest Prislic - 227!!

Rozle Zagar or Jaka Rus. Who do you think will jump as first on the new flying hill in Planica? The decision will be made directly before official hill test (Wednesday, 10:15 am). Mr Gros said that the one who has “no fear in eyes” will do it. This waiting is exciting!  I think that not many of you have heard about that two guys but if you’ve ever took part at World Cup competition in Germany, Austria, Swiss, Slovenia... you had to see them. They are “proffesional trial jumpers”. 

I seriously can’t wait to hear this melody again! It always makes me very happy. But from another side I’ve tears in my eyes coz I know that season is over and we’ve to wait a few months till SGP.
