Overview
- Raimund took the men’s normal-hill title in Predazzo with 274.1 points, highlighted by a 106.5‑meter jump that edged Poland’s Kacper Tomasiak at 270.7.
- Japan’s Ren Nikaidō and Switzerland’s Gregor Deschwanden shared the bronze, capping a volatile final with multiple lead changes.
- The gold is Raimund’s first major individual victory after entering the Games without a single World Cup win.
- He has publicly discussed a fear of heights, withdrew from ski flying at Planica in March 2025, and worked with a mental coach to manage the issue.
- Coach Stefan Horngacher said Raimund will compete in the mixed team event with Felix Hoffmann, Selina Freitag, and Agnes Reisch, with hopes the win lifts Germany ahead of the large-hill competition.
