Question(27.1.2004): Kumpi on parempi Nykänen vai Weissflog? Nykäsen
puolesta puhuu 4 olympiakultaa ja lukuisat MM-mitalit. Weissflog sen
sijaan voitti olympiakultaa perinteisellä, -ja V-tyylillä.
Answer: Ota pari kepua ja rupee jonku saksalaisen kans vääntään kättä siitä.
Frage:Wer ist besser, Nykänen oder Weissflog? Für Nykänen sprechen
4mal Olympiagold und seine zahlreichen WM-Medaillen. Weissflog dagegen
hat Olympiagold mit der alten- und der V-Technik gewonnen.
Antwort:Nimm ein paar "kepua"(whatever ) und fang mit irgendeinen
Deutschen Händedrücken an.
Queston(28.9.2003): Heips.
Kerrohan, mitä te hyppääjät oikein puhutte toisillenne kilpailuissa?
Small talkia, mutta onko teillä jotaki "suosikkiaihetta"?
Kiitos ja onnea&menestystä!
Answer: "Missä baarissa olit?" & "Huomasitko tiskillä sen hyvännäkösen muijan?"
...jos puhutaan nii puhutaan p***aa poikien kesken. Välillä yritetään
keskittyä itse kilpailuunki...
Frage: Heips. Erzähl mal, was redet ihr Springer untereinander während
der Springen? Small talk, aber habt ihr auch irgendein
"Lieblingsthema"?Danke und viel Erfolg!
Antwort:"In welcher Bar warst du?" & "Hast du an der Theke die
gutaussehende Frau gesehen?"...wenn wir miteinander reden, dann mit
den Jungs nur scheiße. Und zwischendurch versuchen wir uns auch auf
die Springen zu konzentrieren...

verrückt nach den finnischen Springern, sowas gabs in Finnland zuletzt
zu Tonis Zeiten. [...]
Antwort:[...]Ach ja?[...]
Question(25.2.2004): Hi Matti I wanna ask you why you´re writing only
so short answers?Ěs it because of having not much time or why?I know
it´s a stupid question, but I´m interested in it...
Answer: I'm littlebit busy at the moment...
Question(25.2.2004): Moi Matti, two questions:
1. When your coach laughed about vellu's (terrible) jump at Willingen
on saturday, was this irony, insane despair or just fun?
2. Is Jussi still alive? I'm asking because Janne Ahonen and Tommi
Nikunen seemed to want to kill him - at least they looked like that -
after his first jump on Sunday at Willingen.
Would be great if you could answer these questions.
Answer: 1) Don't know, maybe it was just irony... 2) He's alive,
Nobody blaimed nobody...
Question(25.2.2004): terve gazza! I can't understand why some people
tell u that u should be nicer and have to tread ur fans better. I like
ur answers. they're the right reply of some stupid Q. that's ur style
& I hope you'll publish this message (...but I don't bet;-) so that
everybody can see that there are people who understand ur kind of
irony. keep on... now my"stupid"question: can u publish more
pictures(good ones) on ur page? (besides ur Finnish answers help me to
improve Finnish) thx;)
Answer: I'll try, but I'm lazy, and I think I'm (read: peksi) gonna
reconstract my page at spring time, maybe...
Question(25.2.2004): Hei Matti
If i remember right, you said that you´re living together with a
friend of yours...but what i actually wanted to ask:
How often do you meet Jussi, and was it fun for you to jump in a team
with him at team-competition in Wilingen? or doesnt it make a
difference to you with who you're jumping?
Sorry that this is one of these your-brother-questions which you seem
to dislike, but i would apreciate an answer
Have fun at your races
Answer: It was good to see him to jump in the same team (first time
actually) as I.
Question(25.2.2004): Hello, I have few guestions:
1) Do you know that new ski jump is planning to be built in Moscow?
2) Is it possible that you can decide not to jump when you are waiting
on the top of the skijumping hill and the weather is so bad that you
think it would be dangerous for you but trainer want you to jump?
Could you be penalize when you would refuse to jump? Because many
jumpers complain that they had to jump in dangerous conditions but I
think that it is also their decision... So I´m really interested how
it is in fact.
Thanks. And good luck
Answer: 1) Didn't know that. 2) Nobody ain't pointing a gun at you to
force you jump if don't want to, but it would be extremely
emparrassing to refuse to jump, atleast I would be ashamed...
Question(25.2.2003): What´s the weight of skijumping skis? Do you care
for your skis yourself or you have specialist in the team who make it?
From which material is made a skijumping suit?
Answer: It depends how long are they, for example if skis are 260cm
they must weight atleast 2,6 kg (* 2 = 5,2 kg together) plus bindings
ofcourse. At home myself and at competitions we have usually
specialists. My english ain't good enough to explain it...
----------------------------------------------
Question(25.2.2004): when a competition of world cup will be in
Kuopio, will you be accomodate in hotel with others skijumpers or you
will be sleeping at home?
Answer: Home.
Question(25.2.2004): Hi Matti!

I'm from Germany and I've got some questions for you:
1. How would you discribe your chances at the WM next weekend?
2. What do you do in your spare time? I mean what is your favorite
sport next to skijumping?
and the last one.....
3. Have you already plans for the next season?
THat's all.
Good luck for Planica and I want to see you winning!
Bye
Answer: 1) I don't, it brings bad luck. 2) You mean watching it on TV
or doing some other stuff? I like playing tennis, volleyball,
football... etc. 3) Nope.
Question(9.3.2004): Matti you are really a strange man!If you are
angry on some of "your" fans you dont know how to answer the question
in English-I think you are scared and you answer it in your language
that someone cant understand it.You arent a proffesional because you
dont have good relationship with you fans.What do you say about that
****?You ll answer in your language of course.
Answer: What makes you think that I'm angry to someone, quite
opposite, I'm amused. So relax... And take a beer or two...
Question(8.3.2004): sorry matti that i use your hompage for it but i

Question(6.4.2004): Hy Matti!
I've got a question.

For example do you fly home after Hinterzarten and stay a few days in
Finland or do you drive directly after Hinterzarten to Courchevel???
Greetings!
Answer: We usually drive straight to Courchevel...

them and don't kill them! :)):
1. do you have a girlfriend?
2. which subject are you studying?
3. how come you aren't scared of skijumping (because you're always
calm and so on...)? (I stood on a ramp myself and nearly died, when i
thought of flying down...)
4. is there much training during christmas (before the four hills
tournament i mean)?
5. I heard your brother is playing in a band, is that right? when yes,
what's the name of it and do they have any cds released or play they
just for fun?
good luck for the next season! bye
Answer: 1) It doesn't concern you. 2) I don't study at the moment. 3)
Maybe because I've done this (jumping) over 15 years, I'm littlebit
use to it... 4) 2 days at Christmas time just relaxing... 5) Yes, he's
playing in Vieraileva Tähti -group, they've released two singles but I
don't know do they still play together or not...

Question(6.4.2004): hi matti! sorry that i`m nerving you again, but
i`d like to know: how is that with your person in tv, newspaper etc.
in finland? in germany they always speak about hannawald and schmitt
and their problems.is it the same in finland??and a big question: do
you have a pet?? so that was it and i hope i had not work hard!
Answer: I've said this before and I say it again: In Finland
skijumping ain't a big thing, not even a medium thing. So, another
words, in Finland nobody cares. And no I don't have a pet.
Question(6.4.2004): Hello.
1) Will be Jussi Hautamäki still jumping in world cup or continental
cup? I´ve read that he want to quit skijumping and this was his the
last season. If it is true - what´s the reason?
2) When is possible to meet you on ski-jump in Kuopio?
Answer: 1) He's still jumping... 2) At summer or winter, but not at
spring time...

3. Will the winter season start in Kuusamo again?
4. Don´t you know why

5. When you put new photos and videos on the page?
Answer: 1) I could say that april is our holiday month. 2) Maybe
summer GP at Hinterzarten..? 3) Yes, unless something else happens...
4) No. 5) If I would know how to do it, I would do it right away. But
I don't know, so I don't have a clue...
Question(6.4.2004): Hello Matti!I know that you don't answer but I

cloths.I have to admit that you are my favorite ski jumpers and

just a guy under the take off table with camera...
