They accidentally left their wax in Bratislava or what?

ok this is really disappointing..

Vlhova was way too agressive on this snow and Shiffrin way too passive seems like she wasn’t attacking the course at all, like Wendy, ASL and Frida did.

 

Safe to say completely wrong tactics for Vlhova, the snow doesn’t suit her, but that isn’t an excuse for a 2 second deficit!

Rumour has it that Hirscher might retire.

Again: where did this come from?

Germans are throwing themselves out of the window as well

In contrast to GS, 8-15 slalom skiers are so far behind the top group. I mean, look how subpar Loeseth has been for the past season, yet she’s able to rack up Top10 results and is no way in danger of losing the spot in the top group.

Commentator on Croatian ESP.

 

Hirscher apparently hinted something like that he'll reitre if he wins gold (what he already did).

Luckily there's a glimmer of hope coming out of Austria.
