Oberstdorf (dpa) - Co-favorite Markus Eisenbichler is already looking forward to the 69th Four Hills Tournament of ski jumpers before Christmas.
In the starting place in Oberstdorf he jumps “mostly always well”, said the three-time world champion from Seefeld in a video press conference on Monday.
«I just like the Schanz», added «Eisei» and declared the Schattenbergschanze to be his favorite facility of the four tour locations.
Behind Norway's yellow bearer Halvor Egner Granerud, who recently won five World Cup competitions in a row, Eisenbichler is the hot candidate for overall victory this year.
It would be the first German triumph since Sven Hannawald in 2002.
Before the qualification starts on December 28th, he will celebrate Christmas with his family and girlfriend.
“I'm really happy when I come home now.
In Engelberg the hard drive was full because you can't get out of the mode - all the time ski jumping, ski jumping, ski jumping, ”said the best German aviator at the moment.
He now wants to “just think of something else”.
