Manni Mölgg is breaking new ground – on and off the ski slopes

At the beginning of January, Manfred Mölgg suffered a crack in his knee during the giant slalom in Adelboden - he tore his cruciate ligament. It was a hard blow for the soon-to-be 38-year-old, but one he quickly dealt with. Almost 5 months have now passed since this accident and Mölgg is bursting with energy. “I started rehab training immediately after the injury. In the last few weeks I have spent several hours in the weight room and on the bike. “Sometimes I have to slow down a little so as not to overload my knee,” said the veteran from St. Vigil SportNews .

Manfred Mölgg: “The desire and will are still there.”

However, it is not yet clear at this point whether Mölgg will even continue his career. “It all depends on my knee. If it responds well on the skis and everything fits, then I will continue. In any case, the desire and the will are still there,” said the noble technician, who won three World Cup races in his career. Should Mölgg continue, something would definitely change: “I will probably only use the giant slalom for training and concentrate fully on the slalom in the race.”

A success story comes to an end However, there will be a change in terms of material. Mölgg will no longer have his brother Michael at his side as a serviceman in the future - due to financial cuts by the Fischer ski company, "but not only," as Manni emphasizes. “I'm terribly sorry, I would have liked to have continued with my brother. He has been by my side for 10 years. We have enjoyed tremendous success together and he is one of the most important people in my career. But I just have to accept it,” said Mölgg. It remains to be seen whether he will continue to drive with the Fischer brand. Duet with Dominik Paris? During the injury break and the Corona lockdown, Mölgg also had time for new things. The Enneberger developed a passion for music. “I have planned a surprise,” said the slalom star, who has learned an instrument but doesn’t want to reveal too much. “If I really get back into the ski circus, I will publish something.” Is he following in the footsteps of Dominik Paris? “His music is a bit weak. But maybe we can play a duet sometime. “But I still have to get a little better,” says the veteran with a smile.
