Austria claims gold in the Olympic debut of the men's super team ski jump at the Milan Cortina Games. Heavy snow and wind force the cancellation of the final round, leaving the first round standings to determine the winners. Poland secures silver, while Norway takes bronze.
Seventeen nations compete, with Austria leading after the first round. Jan Hoerl and Olympic rookie Stephan Embacher deliver outstanding jumps, with Embacher hitting 139 meters, the longest of the contest.
Hoerl expresses the team's relief, stating, "We kept focused and enjoyed five good jumps."
Poland's Kacper Tomasiak shines, adding a silver to his bronze from the large hill event. Norway's Johann André Forfang, returning from a suspension, joins teammate Kristoffer Eriksen Sundal to clinch bronze, marking a comeback for the nation after a tumultuous year.
