SKIVO Four Hills
SKIVO Four Hills week 45 opens Thursday on Kumoyama
Four hills, eight jumps and one Grand Slam in the history books: SKIVO Four Hills week 45 starts tomorrow.
The tour opens on Kumoyama in Japan, a K123 hill with HS137, where 🇪🇪 Raivo Kala set the record at 142.3 metres. Jodłowa in Poland (K125, HS140) comes next, then Kuusivaara in Finland, also K125 and HS140. The record there is a huge 156 metres by 🇫🇮 Basisti. The finale is Val Larice in Italy, K128 and HS143, where 🇫🇮 Carbo jumped 158 metres.
🇫🇮 Pikku Myy arrives as the defending champion after winning week 44, and also sits second in the World Ranking. Ahead of that name is 🇫🇮 Salming, the No. 1, and the Finnish presence at the top is strong. In the Daily Challenge, 🇫🇮 Julius Malysz has won three times in the last seven days, the best recent form of anyone.
The big question is history. Only one player has ever won all four hills in the same week, so a Grand Slam remains a rare prize. Four events have been held so far, and nobody has repeated it.
The jumping opens on Thursday and closes on Sunday. Everyone can jump at their own pace in between.
