Gregor Schlierenzauer: "After the first few workouts will decide if you take a sabbatical"

Gregor Schlierenzauer is was interviewed by the Austrian portal SportNet. The twenty-four of Innsbruck has the track record of the 2013 season - 14'', analyzing what is went the wrong, and looked to the future. '' The hypothesis of the withdrawal seems averted, but still not unclear whether it will the game in the coming winter.

These thoughts of jumping more winning the World Cup of all time "There'' was a single reason why I went so bad, rather it was the sum of many small situations. From the physical point of view I certainly lack power because I believe to be finished in overtraining, from the mental point of view it was not easy to live with the thought of being considered the best in the world and then having'''''' s win Olympic gold.'' The year did not start bad, though then took a slippery slope and it is screwed down. Occasionally you happen to have a season so negative. You bitter certainly think that for me has come just at the Olympic Games, but I tried to see the good side, or to have made a new experience and learned something from it in such a way as to make a step forward in the future. '' There is was nothing positive in my winter, but it sure is was very informative. The difficult period is continued even after the season because in recent weeks the media has painted the'' farewell to Alexander Pointner as a result of our differences and then as if I were to push the federation to silurarlo. Is not so, if you look back at my collaboration with Alex I think it's been very positive, it is he who raised me as a jumper. Of course, we do not always see things the same way, but our differences were not dependent on the results because c'' were discussions even when I was winning. However we always compared to quattr'' eyes. In any case, I welcome the fact that he has decided to change the head coach because every so often to athletes need to stop and restart to get new impulses and new stimuli. I have already spoke with Heinz Kuttin, I have to say that c'' is was immediately feeling between us. Friday May 9th will be the first'' official'' meeting between the jumpers and the new coach will be made where the plans for the summer''. Honestly, I have not decided what to do in 2014 -'' 15, but I will understand after the first few workouts. If I will make account to be able to give 100% then I will be surely the game, otherwise it will opt to pull the plug and take a radical sabbatical season. My decision then, will in the near future.
