Adelboden, Wengen, Kitzbühel and now Schladming. These are the absolute highlights of alpine skiing. What we’ve experienced so far is hard to beat. We are currently at the peak of other world sports such as tennis, golf or American football.
Wimbledon with the legendary lawn tennis, Augusta with the Golfmasters or Las Vegas with this year’s Super Bowl are the benchmarks.
Thanks to the fortunate snow and weather conditions, we experienced competitions at the highest level. Accompanied by excellent victories, painful defeats and dramas.
Exceptional talent with different characters
The art of slalom skiers moving between the poles. The courage of the downhillers to flirt with the limit more than ever and to provoke shortness of breath here and there. All of this makes them white rock stars right now. Both on and off the slopes they are exceptional talents with different faces and characters. Naturally, Lucas Braathen from Brazil would fit in well here.
We enjoy the million-dollar spectacle and notice that in Kitzbühel the total prize money reaches the million mark for the first time. 333,000 euros per race. Double the legal minimum of 150,000!
100,000 euros too much? No!
The winner who jumps over the mousetrap 50 meters into the depths, masters the icy steep slope, the Seidlalm jump and the Hausbergkante the fastest and shoots towards the finish at more than 140 km/h will receive a check for 100,000 euros. the evening in your hands. Too many? No!
Luke Humphries collected 500,000 pounds (584,145 euros) as winner of the World Darts Championship! This is just one example of how skiing is still lagging behind in this regard.
Nevertheless, Cyprien Sarrazin, I am sure, would rather hold the golden chamois, the winning prize of the Streif, in his hand than the volatile euros.
