After already athletes, fans and friends from all over the world donated money to support Nick Fairall after his crash, now also sponsors of ski jumping participate in the fundraising activity. 

In the challenging ladies' super-G race on Monday, 19 racers didn't cross the finish line. Among them Italy's Daniela Merighetti, Switzerland's Dominique Gisin and France's Marion Rolland unfortunately suffered injuries in high speed crashes. 

Despite a mild and almost snow-free start to the winter, Vasaloppet's snow production has gone according to plan and before Christmas artificial snow was laid out in the tracks closest to Mora.

After his crash in Bischofshofen, where he sustained a severe spine injury, Nick Fairall can rely on the help of the international ski jumping family. 

Reigning PGS world champion Benjamin Karl (AUT) wrote on his online blog that he recently got a frustrating MRI result. The doctors diagnosed a spinal disc herniation, the reason for his problems in his left foot he suffered over the past weeks. 

It was probably the biggest question of the past two days: will Iouri Podladtchikov be able to start at the World Championships Halfpipe event at Kreischberg? But today, after a successful second training, the reigning World Champion gave the green light for tomorrow's qualifiers. 

The 1st downhill training run on the Lauberhorn took place under a clear sky and on a course prepared to the highest standard despite the recent warm weather, which hit the region. 

In our interview series "FIS Ski Jumping-Talk" we present talks with ski jumping athletes and officials. Today: Stefan Kraft, winner of the 63rd 4-Hills-Tournament 

Nick Fairall, who suffered a serious spine injury when he fell in the qualification for the final event of the 4-Hills-Tournament in Bischofshofen, is still in the hospital in Schwarzach. 

The 41st Dolomitenlauf is guaranteed. This year it will again take place in Obertilliach. The romantic mountain village offers excellent cross-country courses, where several national teams and amateurs started their training already.
