The Inside Line: Episode 5 feat. Resi Stiegler
All eyes are on the U.S. this week as the women’s World Cup heads to Killington, Vt., and the ladies of the U.S. Ski Team are preparing to put on a show for the home crowd. On this week’s episode, I caught up with World Cup veteran Resi Stiegler. She’s been around the block once or twice. In fact, she’s been on and off the World Cup tour for about 15 years. Injuries throughout her career have not stopped Stiegler’s unique sparkle on the race slope, and this season, she’s preparing for what she hopes will be her third Olympic Winter Games.
Beyond my time with her, we dive into some recent headlines in women’s ski racing including an update from Olympic gold medalist Julia Mancuso, who has her eye on South Korea, but has not started in a World Cup race in years. When will fans get to see her push out of the start gate? Listen now to find out.
