1/4
Alex Fiva takes third place at the Ski Cross World Cup in Nakiska, Canada.

Alex Fiva (37) and Fanny Smith (31) reached the podium at the Ski Cross World Cup in Nakiska. The Graubünden and the Vaudois rank third in the Canadian Rocky Mountains.

For Olympic silver medalist Fiva, who tore his cruciate ligament thirteen months ago and made his comeback this season, it is the first podium finish since March 2022 and the 30th overall.

Smith reached the top 3 for the 72nd time in her career. Although the 31-year-old did not reach the final, she benefited from the fact that Swedish dominatrix Sandra Näslund (27) withdrew before the match. semi-finalists for unknown reasons withdrew from the race. After a series of 18 wins in a row, it was the third time this season that Näslund did not win.

Canadian home wins

Talina Gantenbein (25) from Graubünden won the small final and came fifth. The Sistine Cousin from Geneva (24), who sensationally achieved her first World Cup victory in Innichen (Ita) before the New Year, is – just like Jonas Lenherr (34) – eliminated in the quarter-finals.

Reece Howden (25) and Hannah Schmidt (29) ensure Canadian home victories. In the women’s race, Schmidt and Marielle Thompson (31) even achieved a Canadian double victory.

A second race is scheduled for Sunday in Nakiska. (SDA/mbi)
