This time there 9. Today was already the 7th, whch is quite a lot considering we are 11th January...Also winning a globe the 11th January must be also a premiere... anyway, I would also be more than happy if they schedulled more slaloms this season, but it is how it is, we have the Olympics this time, so we got 9 in the world cup JonPhi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hckošice 13,217 Posted January 11, 2022 #402 Share Posted January 11, 2022 And obviously, give credit where credit is due. Mikaela Shiffrin won tonight her 47th WC Slalom careers race breaking the legendary Stenmark record. Unbelievable achievement for sure. Now on the Beijing star wars battle JonPhi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monzanator 3,593 Posted January 12, 2022 #404 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Common sense would suggest Shiffrin & Vlhova have two OG medals locked up but you never know with these one-off courses. I won't be surprised if someone else comes to win totally from the left-field in Beijing. Chances of Liensberger getting hot are maybe smaller compared to last season?

If it's anyone else now, I'd bet on Holdener. She had 2 great first runs in the last 2 races. Plus, what a story it would be if she finally won her first slalom.

Shiffrin 33 Posted January 14, 2022 #408 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I like Kriechmayr, but this whole thing of FIS breaking their rule for him (mostly because he’s Austrian) is just so stupid. The fact that they even showed his “fake” training run and Austrians laughing about it shows that FIS doesn’t care about being clearly biased.

Grassmarket 2,749 Posted January 14, 2022 #409 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Wengen start delayed to clear the broken remains of the first fore-runner from the course. Weather etc look fine. Swiss Narrow-Gauge railways preparing for their biggest day of the year. F2 also crashes. Ted 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monzanator 3,593 Posted January 14, 2022 #410 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Kriechmayr down in 4th after six skiers. The joke is over. Ted and Kirkpatrick 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
