From fear to joy often the step can be very short. Omar knows Vsintin, suffered a nasty fall in Sochi that seemed to have compromised his journey in the World Cup, and instead literally honored today'' s trophy by Australian Jarryd Hughes, falling twice in the seeding run and not centers the qualification among the first twenty-four tomorrow that will battle on the track at La Molina. A gift that does not seem to satisfy Omar, that the federal website comments: "I want to win on the field, now it gives me the math right, but not enough for me. Want to prove to be the strongest in the race." The twenty-four Algunder (Bz), the'' last year at the end of the third season, is the first Italian to bring home the World Cup snowboard cross, since the victories of Elmar Messner dated 1998 and 1999 had reached if it still does in an experimental discipline. Together with Visintin, tomorrow will be six Italians to take to the track for the final stage, that'' contrary to custom, will be held with batteries instead of four athletes each canons are. This is because the width of the Spanish track is not enough to safely accommodate a sextet of riders as they battle for every inch of each run. A snatch the pass were Luca Matteotti, Michael Godino, Fabio Cordi - cool winner in Veysonnaz - Thomas Leoni, Lorenzo Sommariva and Emanuel PERATHONER. The best time of day did the German mark in front of Paul Berg and Olympic champion Nikolay Olyunin Sochi 20114, Frenchman Pierre Vaultier. In the women's race wide open fight for the podium positions behind Dominique Maltais, the Cup if'' had already taken in Veysonnaz. For the Canadian Globe is the fifth in career, while behind him jostle Lindsey Jacobellis (now the fastest qualifying time in front of the French and Charlotte Bankes just Dominique Maltais) and Alexandra Jekova, separated by 500 points in the standings. In the midst of them, but out of action after an injury suffered in Veysonnaz'' c'' is Eva Samkova, whose season ended early. Ninth qualifying time for the'' unique blue enrolled, Raffaella Ugly, which kicks off tomorrow in the first run to the quarter-finals along with Lindsey Jacobellis, Zoe Gillings (Gbr) and Michelle Brodeur (Can).
