The Finnish Ski Power went to the closing part for 26 seconds after the hill.

A year ago, Niskanen was number one in a different level class in the same community.
– Yeah. There was no best feed, but went for a better direction. It is not yet a good condition to be able to ski on consecutive days, which is why I was not here on Saturday.
– It’s nice to ski here. Last year was a district master and now I’m the winner of the Finnish Cup. This is development, Niskanen fermented.
Olympic winter
Niskanen will not participate in the Taivalkoski Championships next weekend. So the season is here.
