❄️Two true legends of Austrian skiing at Presolana Ski Arena 365! 🎿🇦🇹
A few days ago, we had the great honor of welcoming Benni Raich and Marlies Schild, who visited us together with their children and a small Austrian delegation of young athletes, coaches and national team scouts.
Benni Raich, one of the greatest and most successful ski champions of all time, has some very special memories of Italy: at the Turin 2006 Olympic Games, he won two fantastic gold medals, in slalom and giant slalom.
Alongside him was Marlies Schild, an extraordinary champion and a true icon of Austrian skiing. But don’t call her just a slalom specialist! Marlies proudly remembers competing – and winning – in the speed disciplines too!
Together with their lovely children, who are of course already incredibly fast through the gates, they spent the whole morning with us discovering and testing our “home of skiing”, Presolana Ski Arena 365.
The young athletes trained first in slalom and then on a mini giant slalom, putting both the slope and the Neveplast surface to the test.
At the end of the morning, we asked Benni and Marlies to share their impressions with us. Here’s what they had to say! 🎥
It was a great honor to have you with us. Thank you for visiting and… see you soon! ❤️
A special thank you to accompanied the Austrian delegation and gave us the amazing opportunity to welcome two true skiing legends to Presolana Ski Arena 365. Thank you for bringing them to us!
