Stefan Kraft can fly into the history books
Stefan Kraft is looking forward to the monster hill in Oberstdorf. At the end of the season, the Salzburg native could set a record ...
"Ski flying is my favorite thing to do, it's what I do best," says Adler star Stefan Kraft, who is looking forward to his first rendezvous with a monster hill this winter in Oberstdorf next week after this weekend's competitions in Zakopane, where a team and individual competition are on the program. And Oberstdorf will make the Salzburg native's heart beat faster once again. Firstly, he celebrated his first ski flying victory on the Heini-Klopfer-Bakken in 2017, and secondly, he has achieved four of his ten ski flying World Cup successes in Bavaria.
Predazzo not ready
"Krafti" should have dealt with the disappointment of missing out on the overall tour victory. Delays in the construction of the new Olympic ski jumps in Predazzo had led to an unwanted competition break in the middle of the season. The Olympic dress rehearsal is now to take place at the summer GP in September.
The reigning ski flying world champion could soon write his name in the history books. Like Gregor Schlierenzauer and Peter Prevc, he has won the small crystal globe three times, and a fourth would make Kraft the sole record holder. The ski flying world record holder could snatch another record from Schlierenzauer. The Tyrolean is still the most successful flyer with 14 World Cup victories on monster hills. Kraft holds on to 10.
