The night jump final is about to start and the skiers have just been out for the parade in front of a crowd of over 5000. The rain has stopped and the wind had died right down.
The results for the final round wil be posted below as each skier completes 3 jumps. The final will be run in reverse order, so first out is damien Sharman, who to be fair has the worst conditions in the first round.
