Paolo De Chiesa, the voice of skiing in Italy as far as the men's sector is concerned, has gathered his thoughts on the Rettenbach giant that opened the World Cup season, analyzing a race that saw the French team dominate, with a double win. signed by Pinturault and Faivre, while the Azzurri had to settle for Luca De Aliprandini's 8th place. The former of the Valanga Azzurra, which our Dario Puppo interviewed before the opening of the Coppa in a video that we proposed on NEVEITALIA (click here to see it), from this year commented on the studies of Rai Sport and not more in commentary alongside Davide Labate, so much so that the fans have created a public group on facebook, which already has over 1000 members, to protest about a decision that has caused much discussion in recent days; De Chiesa, in his blog at the Colmar house, did not hide concerns about the health of the Italian giant. "Only Pinturault has respected the forecasts, starting the season as he had finished the previous one, or winning - explains Paolo referring to those who will inherit the throne of Hirscher and therefore the failed duel of the Frenchman with Kristoffersen - Alexis was masterful, skiing without uncertainty and inaccuracies, constantly at the edge of the pole, rather being cautious in terms of trajectory where indispensable for tracing and morphology of the land. What an enchantment to see him ski flying from one door to the other in an inexhaustible flow of energy, lightning at the time of junction at a time of curved arches carved into the snow in large letters. Needless to ask what would have happened with Hirscher on the track: honor to the French who took advantage of it immediately â€. On Kristoffersen, De Chiesa's analysis is clear: "He started on the wrong foot, 8 tenths off the halfway point, perhaps only because he didn't unravel the horses under his feet on a snow he was giving more than expected in reconnaissance , attempting a race of his, unfinished due to excess of enthusiasm and desire to overdo it to commit a huge mistake on the top of the wall of the 2nd run, with a tilt of the bust due to the immediate contact of the boot with the snow ". Ted Ligety, excellent fifth, liked a lot the commentator Rai: â€œHe was unbeatable until a few years ago, before eclipsing himself in the anonymity between injuries and technical obsolescence, but he rose from his ashes by modernizing himself in skiing, less carving and closer ai pali â€, while the blue report card can only be negative. "The Italians clung to body and soul to De Aliprandini, 8th from 17th with a convincing and good-luck race: if in the opening the blue had skied a bit in tears and too often putting the ski sideways before the post, its endemic weak point for the canons of today's skiing, in the second test we saw it more solid and continuous in action, able to connect the curves with greater harmony. Unfortunately, the reinforcements, lost in a series of serious errors that prevented their qualification, have been totally missed to the appeal, missed for 3 tenths by an excellent Paris lent to the giant. I open a parenthesis for the timeless Moelgg, at the three hundredth opening of a bowl gate, honored with a good 20th place. Our young people watch and learn to ski from him ... alas.
