The season calendar was officially confirmed two months later at the congress in Cancún, Mexico. After a four-year absence, the FIS Team Tour 2017 was almost certain to return in the World Cup calendar, but cancelled in the last moment when Klingenthal had to replace Titisee-Neustadt early in the season. South Korea hosted a World Cup event for the first time, in Pyeongchang.
The first edition of the Raw Air was held this season in Norway between 10–19 March 2017 on four different hills in Oslo, Lillehammer, Trondheim, and Vikersund. The competition lasted for ten consecutive days with a total of 16 rounds in overall standings: 8 rounds from four individual events, 4 rounds from two team events and all 4 qualifications rounds. The competition also had a record high prize money of €100,000 in total for top 3 competitors in overall standings: €60,000 for the title, €30,000 for the second place and €10,000 for the third place.[3]
This season a total of four different ski brands supplied the athletes. The two new ski manufactures premiered in the circuit and replaced the two brands that stopped the production: German company Verivox replaced Fluege.de and Slovenian company Slatnar instead of Elan. Fischer and Sport 2000 were also present.[4]
Invention by Slovenian manufacturer, with LED lights illuminated inrun track, was presented for the first time to the public at the International Ski Federation fall meeting this season in Zürich. It premiered in December at Engelberg, since they equipped their completely new inrun track with it.[5]
