Well Petra will probably never win the races she want the most, just like in Levi this season but kudos to Robinson for the great run

Ha ha, Meta Hrovat on the podium in her backyard (she comes from Kranjska Gora), well done.

 

And amazing 6th Tina Robnik and 14th Ana Bucik, both with their GS personal best.

[Monzanator 4,774]

Slovenians sure used some inside knowledge of the Podkoren. Robnik finishing ahead of Brignone is a surprise

Epic run for Robinson, holy shit. One of the absolute highlights of the season.

Robnik had a misfortune during the season, when she fell nasty on a training of parallel slalom, so she had to abandon few races. For me her 6th place, especially in front of home crowd is not a surprise, it was just a matter of time, when she will complete with two good runs.

awful 1st run from Petra, not sure what happened, but that was really bad, too slow.. one of her worst runs in a couple of last years, reminded me the run 1 in PyeongChang

 

 

Hopefully a much better 2nd run to come this afternoon, even if the win is not realistic today +0.90 is too much, but at least the podium can be still doable

[Blue Swede 8]

Anna Swenn Larsson in the lead with 0,50 to Nina Haver Löseth.

 

Didn´t see that coming,even with Schiffrin not participating.

 

Still,Kranjska Gora is traditionally good hunting grounds for us since back in the days of Ingemar Stenmark.

[Monzanator 4,774]

Swenn-Larsson crashes out with 1,17 sec lead four gates from home

 

Epic choke.

 

Vlhova wins.

Oi, had the victory firmly in her hand, wipes out spectacularly a couple of gates from the line.
