WOC Long Qual: Maps and Results

[Update: Improved map quality]- One of the terrains with best runnability we I have been in on the trainings, Anders Norberg (Norway) said after running a steady qualification run in today’s WOC long qualification. Heat winners today were Olav Lundanes, Matthias Merz, Edgard Bertuks, Tatiana Riabkina, Simone Niggli and Minna Kauppi.

All big favourites managed to get to the finals. Andrey Khramov in 14th place was the one of the favourites who had most problems today.
