This was the first large international sporting event in Slovenia after they declared its independence in 1991 following the Ten-Day War.

Chronological order: Espen Bredesen (172 and 182 m) switched his silver medal with Roberto Cecon (160 and 199 m) bronze at the press conference after medal ceremony, as he deserved it more due to the rule which didn't allow to score jumps exceeding 191 metres.

About 15 minutes later Espen Bredesen set the third and last world record that year at 209 metres (686 ft).

Unfortunate to 40,000 people visiting the event, crowd was very disappointed as they didn't manage to see a single jump that day.

The event marked the last time the 191 meters rule—jumps that exceeded the distance points didn't register further—was in use.

At the time the single day event also counted for World Cup points and statistics.
