9 March 2024 at 10:33 Riiber supreme in the show jumping in Holmenkollen Jarl Magnus Riiber was in a class of his own in the combined show jumping race in Holmenkollen on Saturday morning. He goes out 1.18 minutes ahead of the nearest competitor. – It was incredibly delicious. I pondered terribly after yesterday’s training rounds and the provocative session. Now it felt like I had much more control over what I was doing, and then I am the boss on the hill instead of the hill being the boss above me, says Riiber to news. Riiber jumped 135 meters at home in the Norwegian capital, and he was the only one to get over 130 meters. – It can discourage most people, says teammate Jørgen Graabak to news about the superb Riiber. Once again, Graabak is clear that he would like to see Riiber test himself against the special jumpers in Holmenkollen. – I think he is right at the top there. It’s just words until something is done about it, then we’ll see if he picks up the gauntlet and shows that it’s fact. If not, I’ll be standing here looking like a clown who just has it in his mouth, says Graabak. – Yes, maybe I should join in, Riiber answers ironically. Before the cross-country section at 14:00, Riiber leads one minute and 18 seconds ahead of Austrian Johannes Lamparter. His compatriot Franz-Joset Rehrl follows six seconds behind there again. The Norwegian trio Espen Bjørnstad, Simen Tiller and Graabak go out as number 8, 9 and 10, about two minutes behind Riiber. Jens Luraas Oftebro, Kasper Moen Flatla and Marius Solvik start over three minutes behind. Espen Andersen, Jørgen Berget Storsveen and Jens Dahlseide Kvamme are even further behind. Andreas Skoglund had gone out in 14th place, but he was dished out for his jumping suit after his soar of 122 metres.
