Italy's Historic Day in Winter Sports: Not Just Goggia, Podiums in San Candido and Winterleiten

The weekend was historic for Italy in winter sports, with significant podium finishes in various disciplines. Jole Galli placed second, and Simone Deromedis secured third in the FIS World Cup skicross competition held in San Candido, reinforcing their status on the international scene.

In the men's singles, Galli marked a notable comeback after a serious injury last season, benefiting from an incident between rivals to clinch her podium spot behind Germany's Daniela Maier.

Additionally, the natural sledding events saw a triumphant day for Italy, particularly with Evelin Lanthaler, last season’s World Cup champion, who secured victory with a remarkable time of 2’01"71, ahead of her compatriots, Daniela Mittermair and Nadine Staffler, thus celebrating a clean sweep of the podium.
