After experiencing some problems with his ski boots, the Austrian champion is gradually getting back on his toes. In spite of this, the champion from Flachau is still cursed by the fact that he’s never won on Saslong, his nemesis. “This is always a difficult race course for me and today’s Super G was suited for sliders. I tried to shorten the contours , keeping the range of the bends tight. I’m content because the set up is improving and it won’t be long before I’m in top shape�, underlined Maier.
