Linus Straßer Aims for Historic Slalom Victory in World Cup

The German ski star targets the elusive Crystal Globe as he prepares for the new season, hoping to end a 34-year drought for German men.

Linus Straßer, one of the world's top skiers, is focused on winning the World Cup Slalom title after narrowly missing out last season.
Straßer's goal is to secure the Crystal Globe, a feat no male German skier has achieved since 1990.
The skier has trained intensively over the summer, including a stint in Argentina, and is ready for the upcoming race in Levi, Finland.
Straßer faces increased pressure as the main hope for the German team following several retirements and injuries among teammates.
He remains unfazed by strong competition, including the return of Lucas Pinheiro Braathen, and is determined to perform consistently throughout the season.
