Germany's Ronny Ackermann swept to his fifth Nordic combined victory of the season in front of 10,000 spectators, reportedly a record for a World Cup event in the sport.
He finished 53.6 seconds ahead of Austria's Felix Gottwald, last year's winner, with American Todd Lodwick third and 1:06.6 behind.
The 25-year-old German's leaps of 128.5 and 135.5 meters gave him a big lead heading into the 15km race.
As Ackermann entered the stadium to finish in 26 minutes 02.2 seconds, he slowed down and waved a German flag for the local fans and to acknowledge the huge turnout.
The German earned 24,035 euros (US$30,000) for the victory and built out his lead in the overall season standings with his fifth win in six events.
Ackermann has 550 points, followed by Finland's Hannu Manninen with 400 and Gottwald at 337. Lodwick is ninth with 161.
