"When we do something, we do it right," explained SV Mellau chairman Thomas Übelherr, explaining the fact that over 50 volunteers are involved in the two FIS slaloms on the Rossstelle slope. Accordingly, the course on the first day of the race was perfect but also very selective.

However, the not-so-easy preparation also had consequences: Only 20 of the 42 starters made it to the finish line.

The Tyrolean ÖSV B squad athlete Niolas Gstrein took the victory. The 22-year-old defended his half-time lead with the second-best time in the final run and ultimately triumphed by 0.79 seconds ahead of his 19-year-old compatriot Rafael Zangerl. The best VSV skier was 18-year-old Leo Heim from Kleinwalsertal in twelfth place (+3.89). Directly behind him, 17-year-old Leo Bereuter, a local hero from Mellau, finished in 13th place (+4.72).

Revenge awaits on Saturday
"It is very important to us that the athletes take their experience from races like this and learn something," explained VSV supervisor Marcel Lorenzin. The next chance for Bereuter and Co. to put what they have learned into practice is today. Another FIS slalom awaits them at the Rossstelle.
