Here the complete result of the women's qualifications! Here the complete result of the men's qualifications! Here the complete result of the female final stages! Here the complete result of the final male stages! After the incredible triumph in the women's alpine super-G of a week ago, let some pass by for a blow of ass or as a stench of the table towards the skis or according to others caused by the very low level of female skiers who instead showed that race being very high, the Czech champion won the gold also in his race, the parallel giant of snowboarding. No woman before her has won two golds in two different sports in the same Winter Olympics, two Norwegian men, Thorleif Haug and Johan GrÃ¸ttumsbrÃ¥ten, on the highest step of the podium respectively in 1924 and 1928 both in the bottom and in the combined Nordic, in an era however completely different from that of today, in which athletes often competed in both the jump and the bottom. What unthinkable today. But Ester's two goals were also unthinkable in two completely different sports like alpine skiing and snowboarding, but the Czech has shown an innate talent in making the skis run at least as successful in the table and we take into account that in alpine skiing competes part time , which makes this feat that makes her the queen of the PyeongChang Games and not just these games. LedeckÃ¡ showed an impressive surfing ability both in the qualifications and in the four knockout rounds, in the final, the only run in which he had some slight uncertainty due to the awareness of having his eyes on the whole world, he had the better on the German Selina JÃ¶rg that at the third Olympics has finally caught a silver medal, after the fourth place in Vancouver 2010. Bronze to another German, Ramona Theresia Hofmeister, thanks to the fall of the Russian Alena Zavarzina, second in qualifying but also falling in the semifinals against JÃ¶rg, for Germany is double podium on the lower steps as in Sochi 2014 in the deceased, at the Olympic level, parallel slalom, when Anke Karstens was silver and veteran Amelie Kober bronze. For the Czech Republic instead it is the second Olympic gold in the snowboard after that in the cross of Eva SamkovÃ¡ of four years ago. A single blue in the race, Nadya Ochner, eighteenth and eliminated in the qualifications. The first four of the men's parallel giant qualifications were confirmed until the semi-finals and only the second and third positions were exchanged. He won the gold Nevin Galmarini, leader of the World Cup as well as LedeckÃ¡, the Swiss, silver four years ago, in the final he beat Lee Sangho who conquers the first, historic medal for South Korea in snowboarding, he who in World Cup has only reached the podium once. Bronze as in Sochi where he was also silver among the narrowest doors for the Slovenian an KoÅ¡ir, mocked for a single penny in the semifinals by Lee and then winner of the final for the third place for 1 "49 on the French Sylvain Dufour. The Blues: only Edwin Coratti and Roman Fischnaller have reached the final stages and have both spent the first round, Fisch among other things against the outgoing champion, the Russian US Vic Wild, but then in the quarters they surrendered to Dufour respectively and Galmarini were classified seventh and eighth, already out in qualifying Aaron March and Mirko Felicetti, twenty-third and twenty-ninth.
