It was a foreign victory through Ukraine's Vitalij Madzyn, who won ahead of Jesper Nelin.
The two biggest Swedish male names had a tough time, however:
Sebastian Samuelsson only finished fifth in the icy tracks and windy conditions, 1.22 behind and with four misses.
It's impossible to draw any conclusions, it's just to forget this, he says to SVT.
It was even worse for Martin Ponsiluoma. He finished eighth, almost three minutes behind and with four misses.
He was very critical of the organizer not providing better tracks.
It's bloody annoying when you can only drive at 50 percent. There were many who crashed, when I warmed up I saw three in the safety net. Then they stood and scraped and removed the loose snow so it became even more slippery, says the OS silver medalist from 2022.
The premiere was an important test ahead of the World Championship premiere in Finnish Kontiolahti in two weeks, but now both Ponsiluoma and Samuelsson thought it was a test without value.
Jesper Nelin was more pleased with his second place, but also thought it was special conditions.
It's tough, it's rare that it goes so fast and it blows so much. I thought it felt good. The first two laps I'm like a machine, I could push. The shooting is tricky, it comes and goes with the winds, he says.
Nelin had a total of four misses and was 44.8 seconds behind the winner Vitalij Mandzyn, Ukraine, who had two misses in the shooting.
Viktor Brandt, I2, finished third, 1.10 behind the winner and with five misses.
