All ok for slaloms and also for women's downhill and combined in Salzburg. This situation is not very positive for the Swiss resort which will host giant men's slalom on 11-12 January.

After the closure with Bormio and Lienz, the World Cup will start again in 2020 with three slaloms in close proximity.
The races in Zagreb have already been confirmed, with the women on the track on Sljeme on Saturday 4 January and the men on Sunday 5, for Kristoffersen and company there will then be the big appointment with the 3Tre; Wednesday 8 January the night of Madonna di Campiglio, which in the next few hours will receive the green light from FIS as the snow conditions are good on the Miramonti gully.
The women's stage in Altenmarkt-Zauchensee also received green light; on the snows of Salzburg, on Saturday 11 and Sunday 12 January we will see the third downhill and the first Alpine combined of the season (after the cancellation in Val d''Isère), just as Flachau has already done the general rehearsals for the classic slalom at night that the girls will face Tuesday 14.
There are problems for Adelboden: the very classic two days of the men's circuit, scheduled with giant and slalom on the Chuenisbargli on 11-12 January, still runs some risk as there is little snow. Although in the next few days everything should go up to speed to save an unmissable appointment for fans and athletes.

Si ritira a soli 24 anni Alice Calaba, tormentata dagli infortuni dopo il bronzo mondiale jr: Lo sci è diventato parte di me
La velocista valdostana ha ufficialmente salutato l'agonismo, lei che era rientrata a livello FIS nell'ultimo inverno, dopo oltre due anni e mezzo ai box, causa i guai alle ginocchia, da quel 2023 che le aveva inizialmente regalato il podio in super-g ai campionati del mondo juniores di St. Anton, dove fu pure 5^ in discesa.
