Katharina Liensberger is back on the snow since yesterday and for three consecutive days at the Stelvio together with her personal staff and the new coach who has been following her for a few months, Livio Magoni, with whom she has put together a full month on skis since the end of March , that is, from the conclusion of last season of the World Cup.
A lot of work in Soelden, now on the Italian snow that the Bergamo technician knows well, since there he created the basis of Petra Vlhova's successes.
Thomas Trinker, new director of women's alpine skiing in Austria, spoke about Magoni's work with the two-time world champion ("Liensy" triumphed in Cortina 2021 both in slalom and in parallel, in the second case ex-aequo with Marta Bassino ), interviewed by “Olympic Austria”. “Wherever he has been, Magoni has managed to be successful - the words of Trinker - He is a gritty character, but when you work with him he is simply a nice and sensitive person.
Furthermore, he sacrifices everything for this sport and I hope everyone on the team can benefit from his experience. Livio has probably been the most successful coach in the world in recent years ”.
The women's groups of the OESV will work, from mid-August onwards, even away from the Alpine glaciers, dividing between Chile, Argentina and New Zealand. An important effort to redeem the disappointments of last season, when only in the second part of the World Cup did a couple of victories come with Cornelia Huetter and Liensberger herself, while at the Beijing Olympic Games no Austrians managed to win gold. individual level (Katharina just missed him, second in the slalom behind Petra Vlhova), while triumphing in the closing team event together with her male colleagues.
