The fabric made the fly fly in the final round as much as 79.05 meters. This is a new record for a Finn.
The fabric’s previous record is this summer, 77.82 meters. So the improvement was as much as 1.23 meters.

Kangas, 23, took the race victory in his name. Norway’s Eivind Henriksen took second place with a throw of 76.13 meters.
