Val D'Isere WC Mens GS

December 13th, Marcel Hirscher of Austria, won yet another race this weekend in the Giant Slalom at Val D'Isere. This race concluded the stay at the home of Jean Claude Killy, one of skiings greatest racers of all time. Massimiliano Blardone of Italy took second, with Austrian Benjamin Raich third. It seems the American's ski tech forgot to wax his athletes skis... Ted Ligety 10th, Jake Zamansky 27th, Tim Jitloff 28th... 28 people finished the race. Proud to be an American. Tommy Ford and Bode Miller were a bit shaken after the prior days race so they did not start.
