Career

Semenič made his international debut in September 2010 in Kranj as part of the Alpine Cup . After steady increases in performance and several top 10 placements in February 2012, he made his debut in the Ski Jumping Continental Cup on July 8, 2012 in Kranj , where he narrowly missed the points with 32nd place. In September 2012 he was disqualified in both Continental Cup competitions in Klingenthal .

After further good placements in the Alpine Cup, he was nominated again for the Continental Cup in December 2012.

A day later he won his first Continental Cup competition at Wielka Krokiew . Two days later he was given the opportunity to compete in the Ski Jumping World Cup in Wisła . After a good place in the qualification, he did not make it into the second round in jumping with 40th place. He was also able to qualify clearly in Zakopane, but only reached 37th place in the first round and was eliminated.

In Liberec , he won the gold medal with the team at the Nordic Junior World Ski Championships in 2013 . In the individual competition he jumped to 14th place. In the Continental Cup competition after the Junior World Championships in Planica , he again achieved top positions with fifth and third places.

At the Slovenian Championships in 2013 he finished seventh in the individual competition, as he jumped only weakly in the second round after a good first jump. In team jumping he reached fourth place with the team.

In the first Continental Cup competition after the Slovenian Championship on February 9, 2013 in Iron Mountain , he couldn't convince with 30th place. However, he was able to clearly win the second competition on the same day. A day later he had the third Continental Cup victory of his career in the same place.

After Semenič had previously not been considered for the World Cup for the entire 2014/15 season , the Slovenian coach Goran Janus called him back to the World Cup team for the ski flying competitions in Vikersund . In the ski flying of February 14th, he reached the 26th place and collected his first World Cup points. Also on February 15 he reached the second round and finished ski flying in 27th place.

He finished the season in 53rd place in the overall World Cup standings .

In the 2015/16 season he jumped up to and including the Four Hills Tournament in the World Cup , but could not convince with only one final participation. That's why he then switched back to the Continental Cup . In the World Cup he was only taken into account for the stations in Almaty in February and the World Cup final in Planica . His best results of the season were a podium finish in second place in a COC competition as well as 27th place in the individual and second place with the team at the World Cup in Planica.
