“It’s going to happen, that’s skiing. I’m ready for tomorrow. I’ll be fine with the painkillers. Everything is stable, it should be fine,” Kilde, who has won four downhills and two super giant slaloms this World Cup season, told APA . He is second behind the Swiss Marc Odermatt in the standings.
Kilde injured himself when he leaned his hand on a slope. In today’s training, he took 17th place with a loss of 98 hundredths of a second to the fastest Cyprien Sarrazin from France. He was second in the opening practice.
In Kitzbühel, she can emulate Italy’s Sofia Goggia, who suffered two broken fingers in St. Moritz a month ago and still won the downhill the next day.
“Exactly. Anything is possible,” he laughed. “Besides, this is Kitzbühel. You have to be prepared. I know I have the form and I can go fast. If I don’t feel anything and the adrenaline is working, it can work,” said Kilde, who won the famous downhill in the Austrian resort a year ago.
There are two downhill races in Kitzbühel, the second one will be held on Saturday.
