    22 Ski alpin Grüner Streifzug FORTSETZUNG VON SEITE 21 Auf diesem Stuhl hat sich der Unterwalliser im Kopf auch seine Traumlinie für die tückische Haus­ bergkante zurechtgelegt. Im Som­ mer grasen hier die Kühe. Und be­ vor Défago kurz vor der Traverse über den elektrischen Zaun springt, meint er: «Das ist die Stelle, wo du das Rennen entweder gewinnst oder verlierst.

Verhängnisvoller Hang Einen Tag später riss Silvan Zur­ briggen ein paar hundert Meter weiter oben am Ganslernhang die Arme hoch. Dort hat der Bauer ge­ rade das Gras gemäht. Rund um das Abfahrtsziel herum wird um diese Jahreszeit Golf gespielt. Viele Bälle landen nur unweit vom Ziel­ sprung, der vor fünf Monaten Dani Albrecht zum Verhängnis wurde. Hier halten Zurbriggen und Dé- fago bei ihrem sommerlichen Streifzug inne. «Schön, dass es Dani nach diesem schrecklichen Abflug schon wieder so gut geht.» Emotional wirds für Didier und Silvan auch nach der Wanderung noch einmal. Denn das OK und die Hahnenkammbahn widmen un­ seren Kitzbühel­Helden wie allen anderen bisherigen Hahnenkamm­ Siegern eine Gondel.

Miller has won a total of four gold medals and one silver medal at the World Championships. In the 2004/2005 Season, Miller won his first overall FIS World Cup title, outlasting Austrian Benjamin Raich. In the 2006/07 Season, Miller finished 4th overall and won the Super G title. In May 2007, Miller announced that he was leaving the U.S. Ski Team to race as an independent.

The native of tiny Triumph, Idaho announced her retirement from competition following the 2002 women’s Olympic downhill at Snowbasin, Utah, ending a career that included nine career World Cup victories, the 1995 and 1996 World Cup downhill discipline titles and a trio of World Championships medals to go along with her two Olympic medals, including the Super-G gold at the 1998 Nagano Games. In addition, Street collected a total of four U.S. National titles during her illustrious career, despite being injured and away from ski racing for two years.
