#streif #kitzbühel - กีฬา
4 schweizer in den top 6 - chapeau!
Growing up, the Wengen and Kitzbühel races were like christmas morning. Shame Cuche never won it in Wengen but in Kitzbühel he was unbeatable so many times.
Switzerland rules! 🇨🇭
no Austrian Rules 😂,Cuche only won 2 times on the entire streif Franz Klammer is the King
Great ski racers.....!!!!
Great video, thanks
Welcome
Mentally, physically the toughest DH on the tour. Kitz is the F1/of ski racing. Looking out the start-hut is like no other! most quiet place at the start area of all races. Into the mix in a split second. Bormio/Garmisch are a beast also. Dark, Fast and rock hard ice.
Great job with the Video Speed King! nailed it!!
Thanks mate! Glad you liked it
Top 6 4 Swiss
pirmin zurbriggen-
most talented skier of all time!!!
Wasn’t he the guy that witnessed someone get chopped up in a snow machine during the Olympics one year?
Had some errors inthe editing. Tried fixing it. Please let it slip ://
These guys and WRC drivers - biggest balls in all of sports.
Totally agree. Got to have insane guts to go down mountains this way
What about 2 other 3 times winners: Karl Schranz, Luc Alphand ?
Less podiums, so left out
Great Didier Cuche. (but he won only 2 times on the entire streif)
Hmm, still king
No denying Cuche as one of the greats, but Klammer remains the true King of The Streif.
Franz Heinzer
Sehr guten 😂
Luc Alphand? 3 wins...
Now Sarrazin is a contestant 😀
Haha next year we'll see
@@speedkingz yes, indeed, he has to prove himself on the long term.
But that second downhill run will in any case remain one of the greatests in the history!
Totally agree
Unfortunately winning from the top in Wengen and Kitz is important. Nothing the skiers can do about it, but important none the less. I believe Klammer has won the most from the top (4).
Luc Alphand : 3 wins...
Yes, but less podiums hence left out
I think the fact that the site is Kitzbuhel makes no difference to the comments below.
Holly crap, most people do not go this fast in their car.. These downhill ski racers are like astronauts
or rail duel dragster drivers !!! It takes steel balls to be successful in this sport...The difference between
victory and second place can be as thin as a length of fishing line !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Incredible, crazy people
Swiss are the best!
nein Österreich
@@micatrsic8762 Ein Wunschdenken.... !
@@rolandgasser6711 didier cuche hat die streif nur 2 mal gewonnen bei voller länge franz klammer 4 mal bei ganzer länge bei noch schwereren bedinungen,österreich hat die meisten Medaillen beim skifahren ,die schweiz ist höchstens top 5
@@rolandgasser6711 Die Skifahrer:innen aus Österreich holten seit der Erstaustragung der Alpine Ski-Weltmeisterschaft im Jahr 1931 insgesamt 98 Goldmedaillen und führen damit das Ranking der erfolgreichsten Nationen an.
@@micatrsic8762 Du lebst in der Vergangenheit. ... 1931 bis ins Jahr anfangs der siebziger.... das waren Rutschparties.... keine Rennen!! 🤣
Any such list that doesn’t include the three triple gold medal winners from a single olympics is a crock, just like super g is a crock, a marketing exercise to sell more advertising. there are only three events needed to determine the comprehensively best skier. Downhill, Slalom and Giant Slalom.
But this is Kitzbühel
