Now Aksel so good that he wins even if he makes mistakes – Dagbladet.no

(Dagbladet): – When in form release away with it, says Aksel Lund Svindal of the big gaps at the entrance to the steep sloping traffic island before målhenget in Kitzbühel.

Implied: Are you the world’s best speed driving and is located on the right side of the risk limit in every passenger so close that one, yes, when you win anyway.

FOR IT IS what he does now, Aksel Lund Svindal. He wins anyway. And not only that. He also believes he wins every single time he’s in the start house and it’s Super-G or downhill it’s about. Not matter, of course – it is the respect for both competitors, mountainsides, crystal ice and margins too large.

But almost.

Because the form has never been better.

AFTER current flows is the driven four World Cup Super-G so far. Aksel Lund Svindal has won three of them. Before Saturday’s legendary Hahnenkam downhill it run five races in the largest and most important of speed disciplines. Aksel Lund Svindal has won four of them. And it is no wonder that he can get away with a mistake or two in the world’s hardest and most demanding ski slope.

Because the competition is doing even more errors.

IT IS VERY important to have great courage when driving on skis at speeds over 130 km / h. It is even more important to have respect. Because even if you can not safe home a win so it’s not just making out to either.

When it goes usually wrong.

Aksel Lund Svindal knows where he can retrieve hundredths at the clock. Often you can see that he chooses a slightly different line than compet flight seats. Is risqué if you will. Bit rawer. Maybe even a little braver. But where the law of gravity and other physical assumptions on saying that equipment and fighting forces will lose anyway, he lets up some percent.

And smarter.

YOU CAN OF COURSE try to run as fast as you want in the most difficult and brutal political parties as well. But it is not. When you come somewhere like Hausbergkanten in Kitzbühel, and the move is the last thing you have control over, it is no more speed searching. Just balance. And it finds you at least not diagonal approach coming after the precipitous slopes edge into the target area, precisely because the pace is so great.

The only thing you can do is to enter the inevitable and absolutely necessary the skid, the that makes you lose crucial time.

PHYSICAL CONDITIONS HAVE Of course a lot to say. And the physical basis you have given yourself. From this perspective it is indeed possible to say that Aksel Lund Svindal now get paid for skadeavbrekket he had during last season. Not just that he got treningsro to build up from an already very impressive physical level – he got the opportunity to restart your head as well.

Knowing the hungry, as they say.

And the desire to win more.

Kitzbühel SUPER-G ER a great victory, but it’s downhill race with all its dangers and difficulties that matters this weekend. It has Aksel Lund Svindal never won. But it is also the only one.

And therefore he is one of the all-time favorites.

Do you get plus twice the money on it, it is worth the effort.
