Sharp criticism
Neureuther: “This has nothing to do with skiing”
Felix Neureuther, 2005 World Champion in the team event himself, sharply criticizes the parallel team competition at the World Championships in Saalbach. In the "Blick" podcast "Après-Ski", the German says quite openly: "For me, this has nothing to do with skiing."
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen "For me, the best skiers are the ones who can either ski straight down the mountain the fastest, take the turns the fastest, make the fastest technical turns or the slalom skiers who ride the razor's edge," says Neureuther, referring to the disciplines of downhill, super-G, giant slalom and slalom.
These are the "basic disciplines of skiing. But they have absolutely nothing to do with parallel skiing," said the former slalom star. That's why this competition is "nowhere near as important as the other disciplines". And it certainly shouldn't be included in the World Cup program.
"That's nonsense, that's nonsense"
"That's nonsense, that's bullshit. Nobody needs that. I also believe that this parallel team competition is not really needed."
