Defending champion Jarl Magnus Riiber of Norway secured the win in the men's start race at the Nordic Combined World Cup in Ramsau, Austria, on Friday, marking his third victory of the season and maintaining his position at the top of the rankings. Meanwhile, Germany's Vinzenz Geiger claimed his third Viessmann FIS Nordic Combined World Cup win of the season in Sunday's Gundersen event in Ramsau. Due to heavy snow and tricky conditions on Friday, the ski jumping was forced to cancel. Riiber soared to the highest jump of the day in the PCR.
