It’s great and I am really happy, Raiched seemed thrilled about the result. I did a lot of training for the speed disciplines, a lot of Downhill and Super G. Since 2003 I have no victory in these events, some podiums but never a victory…Now that it finally happened it just feels great!

I was really close all these years, I was often really good in the Super G so I can’t really say why it suddenly all came together for me today. It’s maybe that yesterday I saw I was in touch with the best guys out there and that’s important to know, it gave me a lot of self confidence and now I have a podium and a victory in a discipline where I was not that good this year. It makes me strong an that helps for sure.

 I’m very, very happy to share this podium with Didier and Benni- this is perfect, he said. It was very difficult today, I felt good coming down but with the amount of jumps on this slope, it’s often hard to know if you are skiing the fastest line down, so crossing the finish line and seeing I’m second was a great feeling.

 We trained here just once before, it’s a beautiful Super G but very difficult with all the jumps- it’s hard on the legs, I was so tired at the end.

It takes some good skiing, some good skis and attacking hard…but sometimes not too hard because in conditions like these it’s too soft for that, Cuche said.

After a perfect run yesterday, Cuche felt as if he didn’t ski as well as he hoped for today.

I think I skied better the top section than I did yesterday, but than I made a mistake- went too straight and had to push hard into the soft snow to get back to the line, I killed my speed to the finish line. There is a lot of terrain, lots of rolls here and you have to be tight on the line, not ski too round. I think the trick is to work with the terrain instead of working against it.
