Results
Tomas Slavik is the king of the 4X in Val di Sole, 2024! With a course time of 44.479 seconds he claimed the win for himself right before the italian rider Stefano Dolfin. Strong finish and congratulations! He skipped the ceremonies, packed up his van and drove 3 hours north to participte in the dual slalom at Crankworx Innsbruck. With only 4 hours of sleep he felt ready to race, yet due to some technical issues ended up on a 9th place.
XCC
Finja Lipp finished the XCC in the U23 category on place 31. Nicole Koller crossed the finish line of the women elite as 17th while Caroline Bohé finished 27th.
XCO
Finja finished the XCO on a strong 12th place. For the others it was certainly not the best race. Nici finished on place 41, Isla Short on place 48 while Caro had a nasty crash and did not finish the race. Get well soon and fingers crossed for better days to come!
