After the downhill triumph in Garmisch, and awaiting the super-g on Saturday, we can only think about the world championship race on Tuesday in which to defend the Are title. It will be a real dive into "Vertigo" without references, but Domme knows how to exalt himself in these situations.

A champion who never betrays, the absolute reference of our ski that was really missing from a private national team, right at the most beautiful, of its star that has come to dominate world speed.
The success in today's downhill in Garmisch-Partenkirchen definitely gives us back a Dominik Paris who, now, will be able to travel to Cortina with the confidence of being able to play in the shadow of the Tofane, in the home World Cup. However, it would be wrong to ask “Domme” the result at any cost, even more so in the super-g that will open the world championship next Tuesday.
In this discipline, of which the blue ace is obviously the reigning world champion, Paris still needs to gain confidence and, on a brand new track like "Vertigo", the intuition of the pure downhill skier will really be needed. . Saturday in Garmisch, in the super-g that will close the two days in Bavaria, will be a true test up to a certain point, given that the conditions of Kandahar are very different from those of Cortina and, among other things, Dominik he will face it starting with a bib (19) that could be "lethal" for any ambition of result.
"Now I think I'm put really well on skis: everything is very balanced, my technique and materials, everything goes straight - explained Domme today after the race - The Cortina track is a bit different from the one we found here in Garmisch. Here it is tougher, it is very dark, I think we will find a different snow at the World Championship, because it has really fallen. But it's always so downhill, each track has its own character and that's why it's important to understand it and study its key passages.
Vertigine is a new track for everyone and I think the three tests will be really important to get to know it. It is a somewhat short track, which does not forgive the mistake. Better to know her well before starting the race ”.
And that's right, because the blues themselves have not been able to try the new track of the world championship in recent weeks, as originally expected, due to the snowfalls that forced the organization to do extra work.
