Six quality days in Zermatt to build brick by brick of the important foundations, those that were lacking in the last season when Ilka Stuhec's preparation, after returning from the new knee injury suffered in Crans-Montana, had been deficient.
The bi champion of the world in charge of descent has started again since the month of May on the snows of Kanin-Sella Nevea, to then also devote himself to speed in recent days on the Swiss glacier: "We worked on the bases - explained Ilka herself at the site 24ur.com - In Kanin we only thought about the technique, then from the giant we went to speed, but alternating everything with some slalom sessions ".
Stuhec, who will return to the snow in August, with the technician who has followed her since last summer, Stefan Abplanalp, who said he was “satisfied with the work done, although aware that there is still much to do. We are well on our way to getting off to a good start and ready for the new season. "
And with the confirmation of the world championships in Cortina in February 2021, the Slovenian will have a huge chance on the Olympia delle Tofane, where she won once in super-g in January 2017: the consecutive world trio downhill after the triumphs of Sankt Moritz 2017 and Are 2019 would mean history.
