Hector triumphs in the giant slalom: conquering ice -cold competition!

The Alpine Ski World Cup shows itself from its shocking side. A planned giant slalom of women for early December in Mont-Tremblant, Canada, has now been officially deleted. As the FIS announced on Monday, the event failed to materialize due to extreme lack of snow. The lack of snow was an insurmountable obstacle, so that no replacement date or new venue could be found, the news from krone.at . Another giant slalom will be made up in Sestriere after the World Cup on February 21st.

A ray of hope in the otherwise turbulent world of alpine skiing was the impressive performance of Sara Hector in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia. The Swedish skier was unimpressed by the icy and mirror -smooth slopes and triumphed with an impressive distance from her competition. With a furious first run, Hector secured her second World Cup victory this season and left Lara Colturi from Albania (+1.42 seconds) and New Zealander Alice Robinson (+1.52 seconds), like Sportschau.de reported.

It is particularly noteworthy that Hector fought with a cold and yet could go on. After the first run, she explained: "Actually, I didn't want to, I was cold. Maybe I took enough break, but I also like ice cream." This performance was all the more remarkable because it is the overall second in the giant slalom World Cup and left the competition behind, while her rival Federica Brignone left Italy. Hector's appearance was a real spectacle that was amazed at the spectators and caused enthusiasm.
