This is how you can watch Hoppuka and New Year’s races on TV

This space Christmas, you must run a slalom funnel to bring Hoppuka home.

NORSKTOPPEN: Last season’s show jumping winner, Ryoyu Kobayashi, was flanked by Marius Lindvik (2nd place, TV) and Halvor Egner Granerud (3rd place).

The 71st Hoppuka starts with the opening race in Oberstdorf on 29 December and ends on Friday 6 January in Bischofshofen.

The TV rights here in Norway are divided, and TV 3 and TV 2 feature Hoppuka.

It has been held since 1953 in Germany and Austria.

The record holder in the context of the jump week is Janne Ahonen. Finland won a total of five times between 1998/99 and 2007/08. Jens Weissflog has four wins overall.

Arne Scheie – who has covered 42 consecutive jump weeks for NRK – believes Marius Lindvik and Halvor Egner Granerud are among the favorites this year.
