Lindvik also lacks an NM gold. – It has been a bit of a challenging relationship, so I didn’t have full control. I managed to deliver good ski jumps and I am happy to win, said Norwegian champion Granerud to news. – It has been a good start to 2023. Now I am tired and hoping for help to get home to Trondheim, he continued. Kristoffer Eriksen Sundal jumped 126.5 meters twice and took the NM bronze. The entire Norwegian show jumping team, with the exception of Robert Johansson, competed in Sunday’s NM race.
