Little test competition in Park City
The 5 French who will participate in the Olympic Games have landed well in Park City without any bigger problems with the jet lag. They are having their jumping training on the Olympic hills of 2002 and today, a special competition witih the US team is scheduled.
Taking the overall World Cup ranking, the best French has to compete with the worst American ranked. The same goes for the best American who competes together with the worst ranked French.

3 Maxime Laheurte & Johnny Spillane +18s
4 Sébastien Lacroix & Brett Camerota +22s
5 Jason Lamy Chappuis & Tylor Fletcher +44s
Jason had the longest jump which would have brought him 30s in front of Bill Demong. The third longest jump came from Maxime Laheurte!
The cross country part is scheduled at 3.30pm US-time!
