We are the measure of all things

Ski expert Bernhard Russi wonders how the competition will view our successful Swiss season on Monday.

I wonder what our competitors’ results will be when they start analyzing the World Cup season on Monday morning and ask themselves: How can we keep the Swiss ski racers from rising?

How can we copy the skills of high flyer Marco Odermatt? What makes him so irresistible? Why have the Swiss eluded us within a year and are currently out of reach?

Agree, there is a bit of arrogance in this question. So we try to keep both feet on the ground.

One thing is clear: Swiss ski races are currently the benchmark of everything. Switzerland won all team classifications. In addition to super-G and giant slalom, Marco Odermatt irresistibly dominated the overall World Cup. And Lara Gut-Behrami got the Super-G ball again in the final sprint.

The World Championships also brought the expected success after a rocky start courtesy of Marco Odermatt’s double gold at the World Championship and Jasmine Flury’s downhill victory, complemented by a further four medals from Wendy Holdener (2), Corinne Suter and Loic Meillard.

Behind this success are people, athletes, coaches and trainers, but above all Swiss Ski, an association that has done exemplary work in recent years. On all levels. Swiss Ski has understood how to build a sound economic platform, has pursued a firm human resources policy, creating the conditions necessary for exceptional talent, such as the one we have today, to develop and work their way to new border areas.

It doesn’t matter what our neighbors’ analyzes reveal. Our ski stars will neither rest nor take off. They are sober, but their hunger for victory is far from satisfied.
