Mikhail and I were well prepared for this competition. I already knew the hill because I participated in the World Championships, and I like it", said Avvakumova.

Sami Niemi of Finland, who already won the individual event, was once again the best athlete in the competition, but this time it was not enough to win. Together with Julia Kykkaenen he won Silver (505.1 points). Slovenia, with Mitja Meznar and Katja Pozun, came in third with 500.6 points.
