Two 8C's in one session each by Užnik and Schubert
How have you been training lately and what is the next plan?
Užnik: I moved to Innsbruck last summer so I basically trained there almost the whole winter until now. I definitely want to do some more short trips to Switzerland in the near future especially since it‘s not that far from Innsbruck. In a few weeks, the competition season is kicking off with the European cup in Klagenfurt and the World Cup in Meiringen. So I‘m also really psyched to finally compete again and hopefully make good use of my current shape! (c) Michael Piccolruaz
