My mother-in-law says that when he was young, Kamil, her brother’s son, used to run everywhere and jump off of everything.
His jumping in particular paid off. Now he’s on the first squad of the Polish national ski-jumping team, and he recently participated in his first World Cup event.
He finished in seventh place. That was two places higher than Polish hero Adam Małysz, three-time world cup winner.
Of the surprising win over Małysz, Kamil’s father said,
In all this happiness, we mustn’t forget that beating Małysz was an accident. Adam is a great competitor who had a little weaker day yesterday, and Kamil made the most of it.
According to his trainer, Kamil has the best technique of the entire squad. “A real pearl,” summarized nation team trainer Heinz Kuttin (Source: Onet.pl).
At our August wedding, it was Kamil who casually reached down to grab my thrown tie.
