At the third edition of the annual Four Hills Tournament in Germany and Austria, Hemmo Silvennoinen became the first ski jumper to win the tournament without winning any of the single events. He won ahead of two other Finns.
Participating nations and athletes
Defending champion Olaf Bjørnstad did not compete. The winner of the inaugural tournament, Sepp Bradl did compete and ended up fourth overall, in spite of disappointing results on the German hills (15th and 12th).
The following athletes are on the FIS record, although it is likely incomplete.
After two consecutive victories, Aulis Kallakorpi only finished twentieth in Innsbruck, falling back in the overall ranking. Winner Ruste, similarly, was missing a competitive result from Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Thus, Hemmo Silvennoinen took the overall lead, only 1.5 points ahead of Eino Kirjonen.
