A fundamental month of November, even more so for the training sessions that will lead to the first speed races scheduled for December, than for the World Cup points to be collected after the uphill start in Soelden.
The three blue stars of the women's movement begin a different path, after having lived together a special day, Sunday at the Skipass fair in Modena. Marta Bassino received the FISI athlete of the year award for 2021, the fifth consecutive victory for a woman in the winter disciplines, but she is already thinking about the near future since the Cuneo-based woman from Borgo San Dalmazzo will not miss any appointment next month. "Bax" will be at the start of the parallel of Lech / Zuers on November 13, she who is the reigning world champion of the discipline and finished fifth in the race at the Flexen Arena a year ago, then she will also play the two slaloms of Levi del November 20-21, before flying to the States.
"Yes, I will give up the training weeks at Copper Mountain compared to the classic program - explained Marta directly from the awards stage last night - Then there will be the weekend in Killington, which obviously represents a special memory for me, where I got the first victory in the World Cup (in the giant over the "Superstar", November 30, 2019, ed). The Olympic Games? They are far away, I like to think about the closest goals over time ".
Federica Brignone and Sofia Goggia, on the other hand, will give up the race in Arlberg (in addition of course to the two Finnish slalom) to immediately start the training block of a couple of weeks in the Copper Mountain “Speed Center”. "It is a fundamental job for the rest of the season - the words of the Aosta Valley, who in turn received the athlete of the year 2020 award from the hands of President Roda, since last year's proclamation took place only in online fitness level - I will also return to Lake Louise to compete the two runs as well. I want to do well in more disciplines, also because getting the pass for the Olympics will not be easy at all.
It could be my last participation in the Games, I want to expand my Olympic palmares but let's look at the next cup matches which are very important ".
A little less than 100 days before the Beijing Olympic Games, who but the flag bearer and gold medalist in the downhill at PyeongChang 2018, can talk about the approach to the big event in February. For Sofia Goggia, however, “there is no gold to defend as someone says, because that remains and we will simply go hunting for new medals.
There are many cup competitions before the Olympics, now we have to do much better than what was expressed in Soelden, where we broke the ice with too much respect. The role of standard bearer? I tell you that Malagò had asked me not to reveal it to anyone, not even to Michela (Moioli, who will bring the tricolor to the closing ceremony) ”.
The same Olympic snowboard cross champion came to Skipass full of energy and confident for the new season. “Summer training went great, we had a really good time. We have new goals and possibilities, we will then try to reach the Olympics 100% and play for it ”.
And in Beijing Dominik Paris will look for the first career Olympic medalist, who will make his debut this season on November 26th on the occasion of the first descent of Lake Louise. “I cannot deny that this year the central appointment will be that, we will try to arrive with the right form but then everything will need to go the right way, to take something beautiful away from Beijing ...
Now I can say that I am back as before, after the injury, but already last season my knee didn't give me any problems and the return was very good. We had to give up the trip to South America for the second year, but now we will train in North America and I am convinced we will arrive at the best for the "debut".
