Race course team consolidated the race track with deep water injectors.
The start of the Winter Olympic Games also marked the physical beginning of preparations of the race track for the 61st Vitranc Cup. The team in charge of preparing the course spent the whole day consolidating the base on the competition track. With deep sprinklers, large amounts of water were injected into the snow base, which will merge the snow crystals into a hard and compact snow mass, which will cool itself surrounded with snow and with low outdoor temperatures.
This procedure enables the snow consolidation on the race course, to be able to withstand the pressures of athletes skis also those with high bib numbers.
