Fate and fortune continues to favor Adam Malysz

Champion ski jumper Adam Malysz won his first competition in the World Cup this season during the weekend in Oslo-Holmenkollen in Norway, with the longest jump of 124.5 meters. Due to very heavy fog during the competition, the second round of jumps was cancelled, which allowed Malysz to move into a leading position in the general World Cup classification. His most dangerous rival, Sven Hannavald (Germany), was 14th after the first round, but managed to jump to the first position, during second round, when there were only four jumpers left, and when the decision was made to cancel the second round.
