S2.E21. Part 1 2020 Review Apr 21, 2020

Show notes

With the winter season cut short, we managed to get together at The Hemel Snow Centre, before the lockdown to discuss an epic season of World Cup racing. In Part 1 of 3, myself, Ben and Luke focus in on the individual discipline globe winner and how Covid-19 may have given them a helping hand. Marcel Hirscher left some pretty big boots to fill, did any of the 2020 athletes really put their hand up to become the man to beat?? On the ladies side all the pre season talk was around Shiffrin and Vlhova, but it was Brignone who emerged victorious, showed a remarkable level of consistency in multiple disciplines but was it right place, right time?
