The wind clears the second run of Beaver Creek: all home after 90 minutes of postponements

Nothing to do for the fourth race on the Birds of Prey: the trip to Colorado ends like this, now it will be necessary to relocate a new descent in the already very busy calendar.

At Beaver Creek they tried in every way, to complete a truly unique poker between super-g and downhill. It was the wind that caused the second descent to be canceled, after having already decided to lower the start and with a wait of an hour and a half (from 20 Italian until the possible start at 21.30). scheduled today on the “Birds of Prey”. A cursed descent, if we think that it was the recovery of the one already skipped in Lake Louise (with the second in Canada relocated on December 30 in Bormio), and now particularly complicated to put back on the calendar. Val Gardena, in fact, is too close and it had already been decided not to add a four-day competition to the poker of challenges between Saslong (super-g and downhill) and Alta Badia with the two following giants, while Bormio now has no more space with trio became such in recent days. If we think that Wengen and Kitzbuehel already have two runs each on the menu this year, for Markus Waldner and the FIS it becomes a big problem to manage in order to have a fair calendar.
