Finnish postage stamp for the Nordic World Ski Championships 1989

The 37th Nordic World Ski Championships were held from February 17th to 26th, 1989 in the Finnish city ​​of Lahti . Lahti was the venue for the fifth time after 1926, 1938, 1958 and 1978.

The change in the range of programs continued in cross-country skiing. For the men, there was a free style race over the 15 km distance in addition to the classic style run. For women, the short distance over 5 km was canceled. Instead, a free style race was added over 10 km, as with the men, in their shortest distance. The offer for women was supplemented by the 15 km cross-country skiing, which had not existed before. In addition, the 20 km run was canceled and replaced by a race over 30 km.

The Finns were particularly successful at this World Cup in their own country . They won six gold medals and consistently achieved top placements in all disciplines. The Finnish cross-country skiers were particularly strong. Marjo Matikainen and Marja-Liisa Kirvesniemi each won two gold medals, Pirkko Määttä each one gold, one silver and one bronze. The Soviet runner Jelena Välbe also won two gold medals. In the men's category, the regained Swede Gunde Svan won gold three times, the Norwegian Trond Einar Elden was a double winner in the Nordic combined. The Finn Jari Puikkonen also won two gold medals in ski jumping .

The competition was scheduled for February 25th, but due to the bad weather conditions the jumping was canceled after three hours. On the final day of the world championship there was a restart, but it was stopped after one round due to strong winds, so that the result of this round was also the final result. Austria's medalist Heinz Kuttin was only able to qualify for these world championships at the last moment, and after the serious fall in training a week ago, his participation on the Kleine Schanze seemed at risk.

In the decision for gold, Norway seemed to be able to defeat the big favorites Finland for the time being, because Bråthen outbid Piukkonen and Fidjestøl was stronger than Nykänen. But the Finnish final jumper Laakkonen, winner of the four hills tournament, stood up to Kjørum and secured the hosts the gold medal. The Austrians catching up was unsuccessful. Haim brought his colors back to the ČSSR with 102 meters, but Dluhoš was clearly stronger than Vettori (100) with 116 m, and because Boklöv (116) and Werweikin (114) were also stronger , the team supervised by Rupert Gürtler slipped to rank 6.
