There are many good athletes, even great champions (come to mind such as Daron Rahlves and Katharina Gutensohn, Quest & rsquo; last torn & ograve; the races just in ski cross after years of inactivity & agrave;), who chose to leave the downhill and pass the ski cross, spectacular cuisine to agrave; inserted quite unexpectedly by the FIS in freestyle. Phelan, who yesterday turned 24, & egrave; only the & rsquo; last of these athletes. & Ldquo; Since the sport began to be popular, since 2008 or so & ugrave; l & Igrave ;, are always fascinated - says Brittany to alpinecanada.org. When & egrave; joined Alpine Canada Alpin, many people told me to change because & eacute; I would have been very successful. After the Games in Sochi I started thinking about it seriously, then I was 22nd in the world in slalom but then out of the top 30 due to a serious injury in January 2014 to the calf muscle and that's when I decided to take the plunge. Join the team ski cross & egrave; It was a & rsquo; experience extraordinary, & egrave; a world-class team and the advice of Louis-Pierre H & ecirc; lie and Kelsey Serwa, that they too are from alpine skiing, I have been very helpful. My goal & egrave; the podium at the Games in Pyeongchang 2018, are 100% happy with my choice! & rdquo; Source: http://www.alpinecanada.org/news/2015/sx-phelan
