Andreas Zampa's pursuit of the podium, and more...
Catching Up with Andreas Zampa We are only a few days away from a season that will undoubtedly go down in history, and preparations are in full swing for this weekend's Ski World Cup Opener in Solden. Nevertheless, our very own Slovakian Giant Slalom standout Andreas Zampa squeezed us in for a coffee and a chat between workout sessions to talk about training, Covid-19, and expectations for the 2020/2021 season. | | Spyder: The 2020/2021 season is about to kick-off in Solden, Austria. I'm sure your training and preparation for the event looks a little different this year. Has Covid-19 affected your routine in any way? Andreas: Yes, Solden is just around the corner... I guess this will be new territory for everyone, and as long we don't know how long this virus will impact our routines, we just have to make the best out of it. I think this year, it comes down to how well we prepare ourselves mentally. The race calendar is still not a sure thing, and changes are likely to happen, so it will be crucial to filter out all that external noise and focus on what's necessary; to ski fast! | | S: You already mentioned it. The race calendar for the 2020/2021 season will be like no other, with events canceled or waiting to be confirmed. Did this level of uncertainty have any effect on you and your routine? AZ: My goal was to take advantage of the situation and manage the things that were in my control. The lockdown actually worked in my favor because I found time to fully recover from injuries... My mindset was always that the world cup season would happen, and I wanted to be ready for a possible start. S: What's the goal for the upcoming year? AZ: My goal is always the same; deliver two perfect runs for a great result! And, of course, to stay healthy and injury-free for the season. | | | | | | Please Unsubscribe if you do not want us to contact you any more with information about our goods and services.
