Two victories, four podium places - after a strong year, ski ace Stephanie Venier is already looking forward to the new season. The "Krone" visited the Tyrolean in her new home in Carinthia and spoke to her about her new-found love of golf, boyfriend and "coach" Christian Walder, pizza and fashion. 

"Krone": Stephi, you're in Carinthia in summer instead of Tyrol - why is that?
Stephanie Venier: First of all: I'm still Tyrolean - and I still like being at home (laughs). But here in Carinthia with Christian, it's really cool in summer with all the lakes. Especially for endurance training. Here in Tyrol, you only ride up and down the Inn Valley. Here I can take in lots of lakes and do different laps.
