S6. E15. Leave Cortina Alone Feb 01, 2024

Show notes

So much to discuss from the weekend, and we have a real pro with us this week, Ben was away skiing so we found a suitable replacement of multiple OLY and Ski Sunday queen, Chemmy Alcott. Much has been said about Cortina this weekend, maybe more from the media and fans than the racers themselves so we have to get into that! Water skis needed in Garmisch and then Gut-Behrami's performance in Kronplatz... You know what to do... Listen. Watch. Play.

Lots of World Cup racing to look back, we've crowned a new King of Kitzbuhel, Jasna had mixed headlines from return to form results to season ending injuries, the GS in Schladming was an exhibition from Odermatt when he was up against it and the slalom was Schlad...minging with all the rain...

Tough weather conditions on both the mens and the womens races this weekend but the racing certainly lived up to the billing.
