Nordic combined in summer? It’s possible – with plastic matting and roller skis!

Experience long jumps on the ski jump and thrilling chases on the road at the FIS Nordic Combined Summer Grand Prix. Year after year, this event is an important showcase for the world’s best athletes in this discipline.

The top-class program is rounded off by the FIS Youth Cup, where the best young talents have the opportunity to compare themselves internationally.

In addition to the ski jumping competitions, the roller ski competition will also be held directly at the ski jumping center in Tschagguns for the first time.

Top athletes from 15 nations, including world champions and Olympic champions, will once again be competing in the Montafon. The focus will naturally be on Austrian combined athletes such as Johannes Lamparter and Stefan Rettenegger. But the international competitors will not be giving up victory without a fight. The women will also have a top-class international field, led by the strong Norwegians.

The Gundersen method is a start mode in the final cross-country competition of the Nordic combined, whereby the first person to reach the finish line is also the winner of the combined competition.
