Oooohhhh boooy, that was just total annihilation of the opposition.
So all time points record,huh?
I wonder if there is anything in common between the all time points record holders in women and men skiing? Anyone?

Damn, I should have gone with Schwarz instead of Meillard... I was going to but didn't want to copy you again.
The Norwegians keep looking so strong!
Ah yes, the ski, alright!
Funny how Mikaela now looks younger than 10 years ago. The curious case of Mikaela Shiffrin.
With no North American men in the final SL (5 Norwegians!), a friendly rivalry has concluded; Canada finished ahead of USA. (40% of CAN points came from rising star Jack Crawford). Although Italia didn't have any stars, their speed team had enough depth to overtake France. The consistent Germans have held onto to 6th for about a decade now.

I was gonna say they are both really fast but yeah, the Stockli thing.
Maze was burned out after her record season but I think Marco is just warming up! Ahh, to be 24 & fast!! I do think he will need to keep his eyes on guys like Steen-Olsen & Braathen in GS nor is HK done yet.
I wouldn’t have thunk it after the first run but there it is!

l really wanted to pick Pintu & Steen-Olsen but figured both would be a long shot especially with SO starting 18. l was kicking myself after run 1!

Zenhaeusern wins, then Braathen in 2nd (which clinches his SL Gobe), followed by Kristoffersen in 3rd (pretty good year for him on the new Van Deer/Augment skis!): https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/general/results.html?sectorcode=AL&raceid=114132
Congratulations to Lucas on the globe, always like that guy!
Till next season, thanks for the show!!!

"A significant share of world-class ski racers come from a small hill with a T-bar. The more compact training arenas create a significant advantage: Many runs, close contact with the coaches, quick feedback, and togetherness instead of sitting on a chairlift forever and getting cold.”
What an incredible season by Odermatt. Makes me wonder if even Hirscher could have won the overall with Odermatt skiing like that. Shame we never got to see the two compete.
Bringing back memories: Code 3 Fire and Police Race Club. Had out own coach ands one year had a 4 day race tng clinic at Homewood Ski Resort (lake Tahoe). Off t he T the bar hill, our coach set a GS course on top and a slalom course on the bottom. Laps in with coaching from Roberto Taddeo we were all done in by 2pm. The real cool thing was we went to Mammoth races the next week and really did well. Good comments Riesen SL !!!

Loved our race training at Tahoe Ski Bowl back in the 70's and early 80's....
Did you ski with Donna & Gary Colignon?
