"We are in Colorado for finishing in the view of the start of the racing season fast in Lake Louise. The conditions here are good, but there are a lot of teams so it is difficult to make a good workout every day. In some protruding rocks, so then we can try cross-country race. Try the best skiing to see which pair is the fastest. This process is usually one of the most important factors when training begins just before the race season. But I have some fast skis last season that I know to be good enough to win races, so I could use those for the first races of this season.
The training on the best tracks here in Colorado is great. Probably the best in the world. Since we are in the United States is obviously controlled by the U.S. federsci. This is a great advantage. I wish it were under control and we could make the best possible training every day for the entire month of November. This would be a huge advantage, not only for the teams in the World Cup. I think it's even more important for those of European Cup and youth. It 'a challenge that every nation should look into. Building a training track that could optimize the snow very soon. Not only for the slalom, but for the entire length of a superG and a good descent. If you want to do something well you have to train. In winter we are busy with the races, but in November, you could make a full month of training and be better prepared for the race season than any other nation. "
