JASNA, Slovakia (March 5, 2016) – After pushing the start and attempting to wait out whipping wind, the Audi FIS Ski World Cup giant slalom in Jasna, Slovakia will be rescheduled for Monday, March 7.
Mikaela Shiffrin (Eagle-Vail, CO), Resi Stiegler (Jackson, WY) and Megan McJames (Park City, UT) will wait to kick off the Slovakian race series, now skiing slalom first on Sunday.
"This is my first time here and so far it’s been foggy and windy, but the hill looks really good," said Shiffrin. "I’m enjoying our time here, but I just really want to race! We’ve been on the race hill a couple times now. It looks like the race crew has done a really great job with the preparations."
