Christof Innerhofer surprises everyone: bizarre training before the ski World Cup!

In the latest downhill training for the Ski World Cup, the South Tyrolean skier Christof Innerhofer causes excitement. While other athletes train with full commitment, the 40-year-old takes the training leisurely. Ups and at a quiet pace, he slides down the slopes, just to slow down shortly before the destination, which leads to a gap of almost eight seconds. This unusual approach aroused speculation about a possible protest, since he had been informed that he was not nominated for the departure on Sunday, as krone.at

But Innerhofer has a different explanation for his behavior. In a conversation with Sportnews.bz he emphasizes that he did not want to use the training in protest, but to prepare for the Super-G. "I tried to get to know the route and the snow better in the middle section," explains the experienced skier and adds that he did not want to waste his energy. With a clever move, the South Tyrolean shows that it acts cleverly after all these years in the ski circus.
