For some of the Finnish jumpers the preparation for next season was a bit difficult recently. “We have had some problems with the lift in Kuopio and we have jumped only twice so far. In the camp of the B- team we weren´t able to jump either because of strong winds” Arttu Lappi told ski-jumping.net. “In Rovaniemi we were training a couple of times but there I concentrated more on physics. Because I have done only 30 jumps so far this summer, it might be too early to say anything about my shape in jumping but my physical shape is looking good right now.” The 22-year-old also expressed his views of last winter, that didn't went as good as he wanted. “I had quite big expectations for the last winter which seemed to be a bit too optimistic for the first season after an injury. Anyway I´m happy that at least I was at the level where I was able to fight for the top positions in the COC. A third place was my best result there and in the Finnish championships I was 8th twice.” About his goals for the summer season Lappi said that “I want to get into good shape and stay healthy. This year I want to start the season on snow better than in the previous years. I don´t take too much pressure now in the summer time but of course I would like to jump well.”
