In the Big Air
Svancer and Wolf land on the podium at Kreischberg
Matej Svancer finished in second place in the Big Air at the Freeski World Cup on the Kreischberg. The 20-year-old from Salzburg was delighted with his fifth World Cup podium finish on Friday, with the Czech-born racer only beaten by New Zealand's Luca Harrington.
In the women's event, Lara Wolf celebrated a successful World Cup comeback in Styria in third place after a break of almost two years. It was the second podium finish of her career for the Tyrolean.
Svancer, who finished third in Klagenfurt the previous week, scored 178.75 points. Harrington (187.75), who was also victorious in Carinthia, triumphed in superior style, while Norway's Leo Landroe (178.50) completed the podium. Lukas Müllauer finished ninth in the 10-man final after two crashes.
Wolf was even in the lead before the final third attempt and ended up with 173.25 points. The 24-year-old was delighted with her first World Cup podium finish in Big Air, having already finished in the top three once before in Slopestyle. "I'm just so happy and satisfied. It shows me that I did everything right. I'm just relieved," said the two-time Olympian, who had already declared her freestyle career over. "I've never had so much fun skiing before. I just want to enjoy it now and keep it up." The 17-year-old Italian Flora Tabanelli (175.50) celebrated her first World Cup victory. Finland's Anni Karava (173.50) was just ahead of Wolf in the 8-man final.
