Siegmar Klotz: “I think Domme can win three medals”

“It was a matter of time and basically long overdue,” says Siegmar Klotz about Dominik Paris’ recent explosion in performance. The Pawigler ski crosser should know, after all he was with Paris in the Ski World Cup for years. In 2016, Klotz decided to switch from Alpine to ski cross. A decision he doesn’t regret: “It was the right decision. I really like ski cross, I’m happy with the step.”

Serious injury gives more time for hobbies Siegmar Klotz got off to a good start in this year's World Cup winter. But in December in Innichen the shock came: Fall and pelvic fracture , the end of the season. The 31-year-old is now on the mend: “As of this week I no longer have crutches and can finally walk normally again.” Klotz’s goal is to be back on skis in March: “I hope that Still good for driving in spring. Then I would like to do a few more snow days.” Siegmar Klotz in action: He wants to be back on skis at the end of March.

In addition to therapy and muscle building, the horses currently determine Klotz's everyday life. The Pawigler, who works on the committee of the Haflinger Association in Ultental in his free time, is part of the organizing committee for the “Ultner Rosser Weekend”. This event, which is based on the state horse-drawn sleigh racing championship, will take place next weekend in Kuppelwies in Ultental. Klotz is responsible for the route. He actually wanted to take part in the race with his two Haflinger horses, but the injury means that is now out of the question. “Domme also has a good chance of winning a medal in the downhill and combined.” Siegmar Klotz about his friend Dominik Paris Klotz is following the ongoing World Ski Championships in Åre very closely - and of course his friend Paris too: “He has talent like no other and I still have a lot of faith in him. I think Domme also has a good chance of winning a medal in the combined and downhill. He's in good shape, so it's always important to see what his condition is like on the day. But as good as he is right now, I think he can win three World Cup medals.”
