Jens Luraas Oftebro delivered a remarkable performance at the second day of the Nordic Triples in Seefeld, ensuring a win for Norway. In the competition, he bested his fellow Norwegian and previous day’s champion Jarl Magnus Riiber, while Johannes Lamparter, who had secured second place on Friday, ended up in fourth this time.

A solid performance from the Austrian Ski Federation (ÖSV) was also on display, with Stefan Rettenegger finishing in eighth and Fabio Obermeyr achieving his best World Cup result with a ninth-place finish. In addition, the Tiroler Lukas Greiderer, who had already withdrawn on Friday for health reasons, will now concentrate fully on the upcoming events in Otepää, Estonia.

This result underscores the strength of the Norwegian team in Nordic combined, while also highlighting a commendable showing by the Austrian athletes on home soil in Seefeld.
