Controversies
editDuring the jumps of Group 4 in Round 1, an incident involving the skis of Domen Prevc occurred. While preparing for a pre-jump equipment control, Prevc leaned his skis on the control booth.[3] The skis later fell down the in-run, hitting on their way the legs of Marius Lindvik, who was sitting on the starting bar at the moment.[4] An extra set of skis was soon provided by the founder of Slatnar ski manufacturer Peter Slatnar,[5] but Prevc was denied his attempt by an FIS official Hubert Mathis, on account of being too late to the start,[6] as the delay was deemed to be the athlete's fault.[7]
The rules require a competition staff to hold the skis during the control, but according to the Slovenian TV expert Jelko Gros, no such person was present at that moment.[3] Furthermore, it is unclear whether the skis fell on their own, or whether the fall could have been caused by the competition staff member.[6][8] However, the claim of staff missing was denied by the FIS Ski Jumping World Cup race director Sandro Pertile, who said that the case will be further investigated.[9]
After the end of Round 1, the Slovenian team manager Gorazd Pogorelčnik filed an official protest to the jury, which was quickly rejected[6] by a jury voting with a result of 1:3.[8] The jury requested video footage of the incident, but weren't provided one.[8] Team Slovenia then decided to withdraw from Round 2, but after consideration that decision was reverted.[6] This could have been a misunderstanding on whether Prevc was considered disqualified or did not start.[10]
Next day, the Slovenian Ski Federation announced that they will file an official appeal concerning the incident to the FIS on the following day (27 January 2026).[11] The appeal has been later dismissed by the FIS.[12] The dispute was then submitted to the Court of Arbitration for Sport by the Slovenian Ski Federation, and later withdrawn, after reaching a compromise with the FIS, which granted that a working group on the clarity of the competition rules will be established.[13]
