She is the goat end of the fucking story unless Petra vlovha adapts on the other discipline shiffrin will be unmatched. The only one that could have stop shiffrin conquest of the big globe would have been peak lara gut

She is unquestionably top 5 all time and in the GOAT discussion if she retires today.
Two more overall World Cup titles and one more Olympic gold would remove any doubt.

She has won gold at 2 separate Olympics already and will be a favorite again next time. Check yourself.

You clearly know nothing about the sport.

Also, the Olympics are not the biggest stage in the sport. The overall world cup is. Learn more before you say stupid shit.

Hey man, just because you don’t know anything about the sport doesn’t mean other people don’t lol. You’re the one who was wrong.

I don’t have to watch it to know the Olympics are bigger

Except they aren’t….the overall is the most important because it shows who is the best skier on the planet. The Olympics are great, but they aren’t as important as the overall/world championships.

mate, you‘re American.
Skiing is huge in the alpine countries. Switzerland and Austria have a huge skiing culture. Just look at footage from Adelboden this past weekend.
The Olympics are special, sure. But the big crystal ball is in every way more prestigious. Olympic ski slopes don‘t even hold the same prestige as the Lauberhorn or Streif. China held a great olympic ski event cause they built quite a spectacular slope, but generally the olympic slopes are quite shit because they are forced to be held on non ideal mountain slopes where not much is possible.
