Contents The first men’s downhill race in Beaver Creek cannot take place. In the US state of Colorado, the snowfall during the night was too heavy for the first speed race of the season to be held. This means that the speed men have to continue Waiting for the start of the season, two downhill runs have already been canceled in Zermatt/Cervinia. On Saturday and Sunday there is still one downhill run and a Super-G scheduled in Beaver Creek.

The speed races are still under a bad star in the World Cup winter of 2023/24. After the men’s and women’s two downhill runs in Zermatt/Cervinia had to be canceled, the first downhill run overseas has now also been affected.

A lot of fresh snow fell in Beaver Creek in the US state of Colorado early on Friday morning, which ultimately made a safe race impossible.

First, those responsible for the local organizing committee and the FIS tried postponing the start time by two and a quarter hours and shortening the route. The additional time was needed to clear the fresh snow from the slopes. But all the efforts of around 600 helpers were of no use.

Weather forecasts remain unfavorable

«They tried everything. Unfortunately unsuccessful,” said FIS race director Markus Waldner. «The racing line was in perfect condition. The problem was that despite all the efforts, the fall areas could not be cleared of all the snow. In addition, the fog rolled in again in the upper part of the route, which restricted visibility too much.

On the “Birds of Prey” there is another downhill run on Saturday and a Super-G on Sunday. The snowfall should no longer be a big problem. However, strong winds are forecast.
