Done! Corinne Suter redeems Ski Switzerland with the first women’s victory in 60 races and 715 days. But above all, she wins her first World Cup race. “It is so beautiful. I’m really looking forward to it, ”says Schwyzern and her mother, Silvia, loves her. Next to it is her boyfriend Angelo. The joy is written on his face too. He says: “I already knew a few days ago: this time it will work!”

In retrospect, you could object. Not even close! Flashback. Angelo sets out on Thursday to tackle the 534 kilometers from Schwyz to Altenmarkt. But the insurance expert has a premonition, a special feeling.

He calls Corinne’s mother Silvia and Aunt Priska. «Come with me too! You don’t want to stay home with Corinne’s first win? »He asks. Both agree. Silvia: «At first I thought that a six hour drive is a bit long. But now I’m incredibly happy to be here. I am very proud of my daughter. It is one of the most beautiful days of my life. »

video-wrapper video-wrapper--inline">video-placeholder">Your daughter is exactly the same. «At some point I asked myself when the first victory would come. It is awesome that it worked out now. »Suter deserves success with a sparkling clean ride on the Gamskogel, perhaps the most difficult slope in the women’s circus. The 25-year-old doesn’t mind that the start will move down because of fog. After the speed ranks 2, 5, 3 and 6 she is ready for the big coup. «I knew that I could be extremely fast. Everything is so easy for me at the moment, I enjoy skiing so much. »

Meanwhile, Austria is licking its wounds
What follows in the race is a gala performance. Suter’s squat is deep, extremely deep. Her curves are squeaky clean, especially in the middle section she drives as tight as no other. And below, at «Schmalzleiten», she lets her boards run free. Anyway, she has enough “lard”, meaning strength in her legs. Green lights up at the finish. What are you thinking at that moment? «That ride was really cool! And that I would like to drive again right away, »she says with a laugh.

Meanwhile, Austria is licking its wounds. None of the super trio Schmidhofer, Venier and Siebenhofer stand out, all lose time due to a fog bank shortly before the end. “We really gambled away,” says Nicole Schmidhofer, referring to the choice of early start numbers. Nevertheless, everyone ultimately agrees: Suter could not have been beaten even in the sunshine.

Back to Suter’s family. The evening before the race, Silvia, Angelo and Priska go out to eat with Suter in the cozy “Markterwirt”. There is soup, a good piece of meat and potatoes. “Perfect. Exactly what I love before a race, »says Suter. The cozy lap increases their anticipation for the race. «My loved ones mean so much to me. I know everyone says that. But it really is. I have said many times in my career: ‘I can no longer!’ And then everyone rebuilt. So this victory belongs to my whole family. »

Michelle Gisin’s third place rounds off the perfect Swiss day in Austria. The Engelbergerin says: «I have improved from day to day. And now this podium, that’s cool. But these days belongs to Corinne – I’m really happy for her! »
