“I don’t look at precursors”: Comments on the Hirscher launch

The young entrepreneur from Salzburg tested his self-founded ski brand on the most difficult downhill run in the world. “The sporting appeal of conquering the Streif has always been on my list,” said Hirscher. He is planning three more starts in “Kitz”. The “Comeback” of the superstar suddenly attracted media attention and was also a big topic of conversation among the activists. Other tones were also mixed in with many expressions of respect. When asked about the celebrity forerunners, Matthias Mayer said: “I don’t look at the forerunners. If you really want to attract media attention, then of course you can do it that way.” “If you really want to attract media attention, then of course you can do it that way.” Matthias Mayer Vincent Kriechmayr reported on the little chat with the former industry leader. He's really enjoying skiing at the moment. “He has had so much pressure in his career, he has been the savior of the nation so many times. If he enjoys accelerating now, then that’s something to be proud of.” Long preparation for Hirscher During his active time as a technology specialist, Hirscher was “only” on the Streif-Alm four times in the Super-G and three times in the combination. As it became known on Wednesday, Hirscher had already completed a few patrol training trips in preparation for his emergency in imperious weather. Hirscher is said to have been on the upper part of the route up to 20 times. “I even heard twice as much,” said Mayer. “Not allowed to speak, forbidden to speak. See you in the morning!" Marcel Hirscher At the finish he was taciturn. “Not allowed to speak, forbidden to speak. See you tomorrow!” he told waiting journalists. Rumors had already been circulating in advance that the now 32-year-old could start as a forerunner in the slalom classic. Dominic Tritscher, the managing director of the Hirscher ski brand Van Deer, recently described such speculation as nonsense. The fact that Hirscher would venture across the Streif was not an issue.
