Best not Better
Episode 5 - Adjusting on the Fly and Dealing with Injury with Alpine World Cup Skier Stefanie Fleckenstein
On this weeks episode we are joined by Canadian World Cup speed skier Stefanie Fleckenstein. During the episode we talk about her unorthodox transition from college racing to the speed World Cup tour, and how she dealt with her expedited learning curve on speed tracks in Europe. We also talk about how she started to find her footing, her stellar end to last season, the positives and negatives of having to function outside of the national team system, and how she’s been coping with her season ending leg injury.
