      @@domesticus6825 except this didn't happen. all I see after is few skiers who individually excel, while the rest of competition is not on the level...female skiing degraded in many ways since, it's the male competition which really became fierce, and you can see it from the number of serious competitors across disciplines. as for fast skiers, some accomplished much through superior physical/conditional preparations and using of male skiing materials (which requires superior fitness). but it's really hard to do while skiing all the races. Maze has had one incredible season setting the points records, it came from working with Massi. as for Janica...she did it almost all while enduring a lot of pain. it was the main reason she retired, she wasn't motivated to endure more pain after she accomplished all (or practically all) she wanted to accomplish. and she was not ready to ski all the disciplines and races under such circumstances, so it's simple, she was too injured. as for the rest, none of girls who came after would be able to accomplish what she did under such circumstances - there may come another such girl in the future, but those after her up to the present moment aren't such kind. and the one who came close to this, it was prior to Janica, it was Pernilla Wiberg who suffered a lot of injuries and surgeries and still was able to come back and win much

      predecessor and successor. The first part of Maze’s professional career was marred by bad results in big competitions. The opposite from Janica Kostelic, who seemed to never stop winning, literally. Maze rarely climbed out of the Janice's shadow. I guess Janica’s retirement at just 24 years of age gave Maze a new purpose, but there was already another foe in her way - Lindsey Vonn ha-ha. Maze told several times in several interviews that Janica was the only skiier she looked up to so I do not see why to put them against each other.

      Vonn exploited somehow weak competition in fast disciplines. she was very talanted and a hard worker but she couldn't keep the quality in all disciplines at the same time. I think Shiffrin is better than Vonn. as for the allround skiing, it's Janica, Maze and Wiberg who were able to almost reach or better 2000 WC points within a single season, Vonn was unable to come close to this. Shiffrin might do it but it's really hard to allround ski.
