A year ago, Junshiro Kobayashi took his first ever World Cup win in the season opener in Wisla (POL). Of course, the trophy for such a victory is very special for every athlete.

Unfortunately, Junshiro Kobayashi's glass trophy from Wisla was broken during an earthquake in his home country of Japan in September. Obviously, the disappointment of the 27-year-old ski jumper from Sapporo was huge.

But now the good news: The organizers in Wisla presented the Japanese with a new winner's trophy after the qualification on Friday evening.
