Fill also in Beaver Creek as quickly as an arrow

On the “Birds of Prey”, which is one of the most beautiful but also most demanding downhill slopes in the entire Ski World Cup, the Castelrotto native set the third fastest training time. Fill was 38 hundredths of a second behind the Frenchman Adrien Theaux, who set the fastest time on Wednesday, and 13 hundredths of a second behind his compatriot Johan Clarey, who took second place. However, the man from Castelrotto made a mistake in the goal. Already in the first training session it became clear that the descent on Saturday, typical of Beaver Creek, could turn into a hundredths thriller: The first 12 runners are all within one second.

Innerhofer with exclamation mark Christof Innerhofer put in a good training performance with start number 27: After a slow start, the Gaiser raced up to 14th place, his gap in the end adding up to 1,13 seconds. Dominik Paris, on the other hand, still has room for improvement: The Ultner, who came in 16th place at the start of the downhill race in Lake Louise, was a little below expectations, finished the first training session in Beaver Creek in 30th place.

There is another training session on Thursday before World Cup points are on the line on Friday (Super-G), Saturday (Downhill) and Sunday (Giant Slalom).
