She’s always somewhere new. Julia Mancuso had a great competition at the Audi FIS Alpine Ski World Championships in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany. She took her place on the podium with a 2nd place finish in the super G, her standout performance of the event. Unfortunately, she couldn’t make it happen in her other events, falling just short of podium finishes in two other events.

Results
2nd – Super G
5th – Super Combined
6th – Downhill

Julia met up with the Sierra Sun after the competition:

“It’s amazing how different your strategy has to be if the snow changes and it’s amazing how different the course can change,” Mancuso said. “Today it was like frozen spring skiing as opposed to the ice we had in the first training run. The surface is actually really good.

“My game plan was just to take risks and make sure to not give myself any room for mistakes. I executed the second half of the course, but unfortunately I’m not sure where the time went on the top part.”

Julia wore Burnet Havana G12 around the event.
