Svindal: As a “one-armed bandit” to the Val Gardena victory

Aksel Lund Svindal is the king of Val Gardena. The 35-year-old ski star won the Super-G on the Saslong for the fifth time on Friday after 2009, 2012, 2013 and 2015, thereby restoring the Norwegians' dominance at the South Tyrolean speed venue. Svindal has to fight as a “one-armed bandit”.
