ANC tech season concludes at Coronet Peak

By Published On: September 2nd, 2016Comments Off on ANC tech season concludes at Coronet Peak

Australia New Zealand Cup action at Coronet Peak, New Zealand, wrapped up on Thursday as the men and women duked it out on the slopes of Coronet’s race arena. Deep fields for both genders resulted fast racing and a high-intensity atmosphere as coveted discipline titles were decided over the two days of slalom action.

Austria’s Ricarda Haaser took the first women’s race with a total time of 1:41.56 seconds, finishing a whopping 1.82 seconds ahead of her compatriot Katharina Huber in second place. Adding a country many people might associate more with speed skating than alpine skiing to the mix, Dutch racer Adriana Jelinkova snuck in for a third-place finish, 1.97 seconds behind Haaser. Top american honors on the day went to the U.S. Ski Team’s Nina O’Brien who finished in fifth place.

The second women’s race saw Huber improve on her previous result and take the win with a time of 1:43.45 seconds, 1.75 seconds ahead of Jelinkova who managed to finish in second. The podium was rounded out by Great Britain’s Charlotte Guest in third. Just off the podium were four Americans including O’Brien, Galena Wardle, Storm Klomhaus, and Cecily Decker finished in fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh place, respectively.

The Austrians enjoyed more success on the men’s side as Manuel Feller grabbed his second win in as many days in Wednesday’s race with a time of 1:42.26 seconds. Feller was followed by the perennial ANC contender Adam Zampa of Slovakia in second and the U.S. Ski Team’s Michael Ankeny in third.

The final race of the series saw a shake-up at the top of the results as Swiss World Cup slalom skier Ramon Zenhaeusern took the win, clocking in with a time of 1:38.10 seconds. Austria’s Christian Hirschbuehl landed in the runner-up spot and was followed by Japanese veteran Naoki Yuasa in third. The top American finisher on the day was once again Ankeny, finishing in fifth place.

At the end of the series, Norway’s Rikke Gasmann-Brott rode the momentum from her back-to-back wins in last week’s series in Australia to take the slalom title with 236 points. American Madison Lord, who skis for Waterville Valley Academy, finished 45 points behind Gasmann-Brott for second place. The top ANC skier was Australia’s Greta Small in sixth with 109 points. The men’s side saw the American duo of Robby Kelley and Ankeny go one-two in the standings with 276 and 235 points, respectively, as both racers had strong showings in both series, with Kelley even managing to sweep the Australian races. Adam Barwood of New Zealand was the top continental skier in 10th.

The ANC now moves to Mt. Hutt, New Zealand, to close out the season with super-G and combined races Sep. 6-7.
