“I was looking for my first success victory World Cup for a long time and seeing him arrive in Kitzbühel is completely surreal. I have no words to describe what I feel “Said Crawford.

“I have a good speed for a while now and I have been able to ski freely today, without expectations, without pressure and simply send heavy, from top to bottom.

I am still a little in shock but I think I will really feel the victory when I will lift the trophy this evening with my teammates and my parents.

Celebrating this with Cameron Alexander in third position is incredible.

And it’s really special to be now associated with Todd Brooker and Ken Read (both winners of this descent). These are legends that have played a role in my support throughout my career. “
