RAW AIR 2021/22 Edition shorter than normal

RAW AIR 2021/22 will be held in Lillehammer and Oslo. The Tournament starts with qualification in Lillehammer on March the 2^nd. The final will be in Holmenkollen March 6^th.

During the calendar meeting in FIS earlier in April, it was decided that the super final in Vikersund won´t be included as normal due to The World Ski Flying Championship a few days later.

The 2021/22 edition of the RAW AIR tournament will be different, but the plan is to include both the New Granåsen hill and Vikersund again from 2022/23.

- In Vikersund we are sorry that women won´t be able to jump in ski flying in Vikersund already in 2022. It is also a surprise that Vikersund won´t host the super final, which has been included in the plans since September 2020. Anyway, we will do everything possible to create a fantastic World Ski Flying Championship as one of the biggest events for the new season together with the Winter Olympics, Per Bergerud says.

He is general secretary in LOC Vikersund.

The program for RAW AIR 2022:

March 2^nd: Qualification men and women in Lillehammer

March 3^rd: Individual races men and women in Lillehammer

March 4^th: Qualification men and women in Holmenkollen

March 5^th: Individual races men and women in Holmenkollen

March 6^th: Qualification and individual races (finals) men and women in Holmenkollen

There is a deadline of 30 days facing FIS to confirm events, which had already expired at the time. It was therefore not possible to wait any longer, Raw Air had to be cancelled.

IT’S RAW, DRAMATIC AND BASED ON NORWEGIAN NATURE AND HISTORY.

Hadeland Glassworks is one of Norways oldest manufatures. The production of the beautiful glass is still solemnly handmade by competent and talented craftsmen, and they all have a long and detailed background. This year history and great traditions meets the new and exciting, when Handeland Glassworks team up with the RAW AIR team. They have been one of our most important partners in creating the worlds most extreme ski jumping tournament, and today we finally got to launch this partnership. We were also so lucky that we got to see professional glassblowers in action while the designer explained the entire process in detail. And a look at the very first trophy.

The process of creating the trophy was a close cooperation with designer Maud Gjeruldsen Bugge, so that we would able to capture the unique and raw qualities we were looking for. The design she created has a character that reflects Raw Air´s core values perfectly. The trophy is based on Norwegian values, as well as the traditions that comes with the good Norwegian craftsmanship. It weighs nearly 10 kg. and measures approximately 70 cm. diameter. It`s raw, sensational and beautiful.
