ESTER LEDECKÁ TRIUMPHS IN ROGLA PGS

Congrats to our Supergirl! Ester STR Ledecká won the 2016-17 World Cup season’s second parallel giant slalom staged in Rogla (SLO). The  World Cup leader told us about the race: “It’s always tough here as it is an hill which is easy – and that makes is so hard to succeed. All the riders are on the very same level. There are only some very small differences. You have to have a good tech and team behind you and be very good prepared in order to go every run as fast as you can. I don’t have a special secret. I’m just focusing on every single run trying to be the first one down in the finish.” We are very proud and happy!

PSL: SMALL CRYSTAL CLOBE FOR AARON MARCH

Aaron March made silver at the season’s last race in Winterberg Germany. The fast South Tyrolean SG PRO TEAM rider claimed his career’s first Crystal Globe. “It was tough today as it was raining all day long. I knew I have to give it everything I have to have a chance for the podium, and I have tried to concentrate on my racing. This went out pretty well. I knew that I would have a slight chance for the Crystal Globe, but everything had to fall into place. And well, that’s what just happened. So, I’m very happy. Taking the title is amazing. It was a dream of mine since I have been a little kid,” March said. We are really happy! Congrats Aaron! Well done!
