311 days have passed since that day and, finally, Tommy Ford was back on skis at Copper Mountain.
As the US federation made it known this evening, when in the Colorado resort that is hosting dozens of athletes from all over the world it is now lunchtime, Tommy Ford is back on the snow and it is important news, over 10 months old. after that dramatic flight in the first heat of the giant number 2 from Adelboden.
The Oregon native specialist risked his life on Chuenisbargli, with a major concussion and then the damage count, starting with the right knee crusader jumped. The recovery was very long and it is difficult to indicate, as Ford himself admitted in recent weeks, a goal in terms of the race to return to the World Cup, even if for the December classics, from the next giant in Val d''Isère (11th of the month) to two of the following week on the Gran Risa, in Alta Badia, the mission seems complicated.
Who knows if everything does not start again from the Adelboden temple, on January 8, 2022, 364 days from the race that stopped Tommy Ford's race.
