That day he was able to dispel a taboo, that is to get on the podium of the descent of Wengen that had always seen him suffer. It was January 18, 2020 and only the landlord and Lauberhorn, Beat Feuz, managed to bend an amazing Dominik Paris who was heading towards "his" Kitzbuehel to play for everything that was up for grabs before the ... disaster.
Almost a year will pass from the last race played to the debut in the 2020/21 season of Dominik Paris, also due to the Covid situation that canceled the appointments of Lake Louise and Beaver Creek. The blue jet will have to wait until the weekend of 12-13 December, even if the planned stage of Val d''Isère, with the return on the "Oreiller-Killy", is at very high risk due to the lack of snow (with high temperatures also in the next few days) in the Savoyard town. So then we could start already with that Saslong which represents another small taboo in the career of “Domme”, who has never won in Val Gardena (with double podium downhill and super-g in 2014). Already scheduled for 18-19 December, the South Tyrolean races could double, but we will know more in the coming hours.
Meanwhile, Paris and his companions (unfortunately without Mattia Casse, who fractured the talus of his left foot last week) have concluded another mega rally on the snows of Breuil-Cervinia, where they alternated with the Norwegian, French and , these days, also with Beat Feuz's Switzerland. Aggressive snow and the slope of the "Ventina" do not exactly represent the top for the blue ace in terms of timed tests, but the 31-year-old from Val d''Ultimo needed to put many kilometers into his legs and the sensations, with his knee Right injured to Kirchberg who always responded very well, they were excellent. “I have to think about training well and everything is going in the right direction - explained Domme to Rai Sport microphones, in the interview granted to Davide Labate - If I think of Kitzbuehel and the heart of the season? No, it's really too early and now I have to be ready for the first races, with the aim of not being too far from those who will be up front. Whether it is in Val d''Isère or in other places ”.
