Career

Stękała's World Cup debut took place in Engelberg in 2015.[2] His best result so far is third place with the Polish team at a team event in Zakopane in 2016.[3] On 12 February 2016, on Vikersundbakken, he improved his personal best to 168 m. The next day he made a new personal best – 198 m. On 14 February 2015 he improved his personal best in the qualification during the same weekend in Vikersund to 235 m, which is 16.5 m less than the Polish national record (the record 251.5 m belongs to Kamil Stoch).[4]

On 29 January 2021 he won the first qualifications in his career after a 152-meter jump (one meter shorter than the then hill record) in Willingen.[5]
