The blue ace works and, almost two months after the crash to the crusader of his right knee, he plans to return to the World Cup season and with so many records that he can beat in a crucial two-year period.

Fifty-seven days, as many as those since January 21 in which a trivial training accident cost him the first serious injury of his career.
The front crusader of Dominik Paris that crashes was the most painful moment of the blue season, a blow for all fans who dreamed of a "Domme" even fighting for the general World Cup, with the final triumph of Kilde which confirmed, a few weeks later, how it would have been possible to see the Val d''Ultimo jet racing to the end.
Looking only ahead as it is right now, there is confidence for a total recovery and that can bring Paris in good condition already on the occasion of the first fast races of the next season, those scheduled in Lake Louise on 28-29 November. Thirty-one years to complete on April 14, Dominik is still in the middle of an adventure that could take him straight into the history of Italian skiing.
The search for the first downhill World Cup is at the top of the list of goals, but in the next two years it will intertwine with the great events related to the medals, between the 2021 World Championships and the 2022 Beijing Games, where the South Tyrolean champion will go in search of that Olympic medal only touched in the descent of PyeongChang 2018.
At the level of individual successes in CdM, Paris is already in third place all time (men and women) among the multiple winners, preceded only by Alberto Tomba at an altitude of 50 and Gustavo Thoeni with 24 pearls. Domme signed 18 and is ahead of the pink triptych formed by Compagnoni (16), Brignone and Kostner (15), with Federica herself overtaking her teammate in terms of podiums, in the second half of the season Aosta Valley allowed to rise to 39 against Paris 37.
