Description
Harri Olli is a Finnish former ski jumper who has been competing on World Cup level since 2002. He is best known for his silver medal in the individual large hill at the 2007 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships in Sapporo. Olli has a total of four Continental Cup wins in the individual normal hill during 2005-06.
Before the FIS Ski-Flying World Championships 2008 competition in Oberstdorf Olli had had a night out in a bar. Indeed his both jumps were over 200 metres which gave him the sixth place in the final results.
In August 2008 Olli was dismissed them from the national team for the second time. He had been drunk during the Summer Grand Prix tour in Central Europe and was late for the ride to the competition venue next morning. In July the police caught Olli for drunk driving and heavy speeding near Lapinlahti. Olli won one competition and placed third in another during the Summer tour. Olli took his first World Cup win in Oberstdorf on February 14, 2009 with both jumps over 200 metres. He has since won two more World Cup events, both in early 2009.
Olli again had alcohol-related problems before the opening of the World Cup season 2009/2010.
