Henrik had a great first run, it would be tough to beat him, anyway

That's what I always think and then, *booooom*, -0,90 seconds or something

I think if Hirscher won today he’d withdraw from the team event, but now I think he could be on the start on Saturday

 

well, honestly that´s may not be the best news for Austria, considering his parallel slalom skills and Team event performances in the early past

Feller, Aerni and Vlhova might have a PTSD from these Olympics.

I’ve read somewhere he was so annoyed about losing he actually trained for parallel disciplines as well before this season for a change.

Gut, too.

I like to follow European Cup results and since last year I’ve been noticing/saying how good Noel is.

 

His run to the top has been really fast though, you have some guys that start great but somehow end up being stuck at 31-35 place in the start list and starting with bibs 45+ (Hadalin) or from great performances in EC to tragic runs in World Cup (Vidovic), but Noel just jumped over those problems like a kangaroo and could already win a medal here. Amazing.

He's been very impressive in the World Cup as well this year, big talent indeed. Not to mention the way he destroyed everyone at junior worlds

I wonder if two young Bulgarian skiers will be able to make the transition, Popov and especially Zlatkov are quite talented and I’d love to see new countries at the top of skiing.

What a nice run for Rodeš!
