with Ika there are 2 things that changed her form. One is her psihological problems after all those falls and injuries and 2nd one is, that this new coach (who also trained some big names) wanted for her to be more careful,so not to go on corse 120% (like also Vonn did), but with more feeling. In that way you loose speed
i said many times allready,that this double points in the end i dont like. in first round we got 30 points for 3 games, now one wrong prediction can put you very down or up
