Duo Holdener and Rast: Insider tips from Skistars for success!

Kranjska Gora, Slowenien - The Swiss ski stars Wendy Holdener and Camille Rast are fascinating with outstanding performances this season. While Holdener asserts himself as a overall World Cup fifth, the Junge Rast causes a sensation with third place. At her last competition in Kranjska Gora, Holdener came in second, while Rast narrowly scored fourth in the podium with fourth place. Both athletes now revealed their secret recipe for success: they trained with two top stars in skiing. Holdener took valuable tips from the Norwegian world star Henrik Kristoffersen, as she described: "Henrik is extremely stable on the ski, as he balances, is impressive." This cooperation came about because Holdener's coach, Jörg Red, formerly Kristoffersen's coach and organized a joint training.

But also Camille Rast took the opportunity to learn from Lucas Pinheiro Braathen, the first Brazilian on the podium of a FIS-Alpinski World Cup race. This remarkable performance was done at the beginning of the month in Beaver Creek, where Braathen not only took third place, but was also celebrated with a fiery "Schneeg Samba", which made him the first South American skier to be successful in an alpine race at this highest level. Rast benefited from his experience during training on the Reiteralm, in which she uses the same course setting and runs as Braathen. "You can see: that's exactly how you have to do it," enthuses the 25-year-old. This synergy between the two countries shows that the boundaries in sport continue to blur and the exchange over the water ensures top performance, which inspires the whole sports world, including the reporting on fis-ski.com
