Awesome job everyone!!!  To bring it back to ski racing I think a good lession from today is how many seconds there are to be gained on downhills. You train really hard to be fit and fast on uphills, its a GREAT investment to push yourself on the downhills in training as well so when it comes time to race you’re on the front foot. People BECOME confident downhills, they aren’t just born that way. Like everything taking downhills as speed takes practice. Here are the times.
