In Tokyo, TV cameras showed a 1.4 centimeter overtramp.
But today came the 25-year-old's revenge.
A Swedish Championship gold that he secured already in the first jump.
The first two jumps Montler missed the plank and although 7.77 and 7.78 were enough for a gold medal, the choice fell on continuing to jump.
Fourth straight Swedish Championship gold
- Today it was not the best conditions, and I feel that I am not really back on track, says Montler.
Despite that, it was a new track record and the fourth straight Swedish Championship gold for Montler.
There were a total of four jumps and the three previous championships, the 25-year-old has jumped over eight meters.
That did not happen today, even though he was close.
- Montler continues to impress.
It is not always eight meters, but if he does not, he is not far away, says SVT Sports expert Alhaji Jeng.
"Did what I was supposed to"
Montler jumped the longest 7.98.
- I did what I was supposed to.
I would take the track record and I'm happy with that.
Andreas Carlsson secured a silver with his 7.70.
Jonathan Hirsh hit with a personal best of 7.50 and that was enough for a bronze.
