February 25, 2007 at the Okurayama (HS134) jumping hill. The Austrian team of Wolfgang Loitzl, Andreas Widhölzl, Thomas Morgenstern, and Martin Höllwarth were the defending champions and successfully defended their title despite Schlierenzauer having the weakest jumps of the entire team. The Japanese team delighted the home crowd by winning their first major medal since their silver medal victory at the 2003 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships in Val di Fiemme which was also in team large hill.[6] [7] FIS Vice-President Yoshiro Ito, who is also Sapporo 2007 organizing committee vice president and president of the Japanese Ski Association, expressed his delight in the Japanense ski jumping team's bronze medal win in the team large hill competition. Ito also expressed his satisfaction that both the Sapporo residents and the competitors are pleased at the organization of the event has run smoothly so far.[8] Switzerland's Simon Ammann had the longest jumps of both rounds of competition with distances of 136.0 m and 135.5 m, respectively, though his Swiss teammates did not perform as well, causing them to finish seventh in the event.
