Snowboarder Annika Morgan seems to be prepared for the World Cup. The 23-year-old took second place at the Slopestyle World Cup in Flachauwinkl, which is Flachauwinkl. Muriel Mohr can look forward to another top ten place at the Ski-Slopestyle in Turn’s French.
Because the last competition in front of the World Cup in St. Moritz (March 17th to 30th) due to snowfall and therefore bad vision had to be canceled, the result of the qualification in Flachauwinkl was considered an end result. Annika Morgan had reached the second best score (85.25) behind the Australian Olympic champion Zoi Sadowksi Synnott (89.50 points).
Second podium for Annika Morgan this winter
For Morgan it was the second podium in slopestyle this winter after a second place in Calgary in February. The 23-year-old has now stood on the podium six times, once in her weaker discipline Big Air.
Freestyler Mohr Ninth in the final in Tigne
At the same time, Muriel Mohr was again able to look forward to a top ten placement at the Freeski World Cup in Turn’s French. The 18-year-old from Aschheim near Munich once again demonstrated her belonging to the extended world class in a ski slopestyle.
Mohr reached the final of the top ten in the World Cup general rehearsal, but there both failed her. In the end, she finished ninth in the first World Cup victory of Scottish Kirsty Muir.
For Mohr it is the eighth top ten placement this winter. In the Big Air, her better discipline, she has jumped on the podium twice since the beginning of the season. The World Championships will take place in the Swiss St. Moritz from Monday (until March 30).
