“Märchenwiese”: Trouble in the ÖSV because of the Flachau slope

“He should make sure he has his plums ready. Then he has to win there too,” said Mitter in a Zoom meeting from Kranjska Gora, where two women’s giant slaloms are taking place this weekend. Due to the cancellation in Maribor, the women are once again skiing on a classic men's slope, while the men are competing in two slaloms in Flachau at the weekend due to the Corona cancellations in Wengen and Kitzbühel. Over the past decade, only women's night slalom events have taken place on the Hermann Maier World Cup slope in Salzburg. Mikaela Shiffrin won there last Tuesday. ÖSV women's head coach Mitter counters Feller Slalom specialist Feller regrets the failure of Wengen and Kitzbühel and is apparently of the opinion that in Flachau and then also in Chamonix one would ski on relatively easy slopes. “Easy or not easy. “Zagreb isn’t difficult either and Adelboden isn’t really difficult either, except for five or six goals,” countered Mitter in the evening, who worked as a successful men’s coach in Norway for ten years before joining the ÖSV women. “It’s always such talk. If you want to become a Slalom World Cup winner, you have to be able to ski well everywhere.” “In the men’s World Cup, not everything is always brutally steep and icy.” ÖSV women's head coach Christian Mitter Mitter emphasized that there were also enough difficult slopes for women. This was only seen in St. Anton. “In addition, not everything is always brutally steep and icy in the men’s World Cup.” >>> Click here for the preview of the Flachau races Feller had previously said the following: “In principle, I have few problems with the many program changes. But Kitzbühel is being eliminated, Wengen is being eliminated with a great slope. And now we have Flachau twice with a fairytale meadow and then another fairytale meadow in Chamonix. It is what it is anyway, but of course we would have liked to have taken the two cool slopes with us, that’s part of the World Cup.”

“Märchenwiese”: Trouble in the ÖSV because of the Flachau slope

First Christian Mitter had to count quietly to ten, then came the counterattack. The head of the ÖSV ski ladies reacted very clearly to the fact that Manuel Feller had previously described the slalom slope in Flachau as a “fairytale meadow”.
