– Very scary images, says SVT commentator Tobias Hellman.

World Cup competition in Val d’Isère was temporarily suspended after 31-year-old Nicole Schmidhofer of Austria crashed directly into the net.

Driving downhill at over 100 km / h, he lost his balance in a curve and disappeared from the track.

– Very scary images. In one image we see her driving through the network. on The Other, he’s just gone, says SVT commentator Tobias Hellman.

Big hole in the net

The crash caused a large hole in the net, a hole that had to be repaired before the next skier could reach the exit.

– Haven’t seen it yet, says SVT commentator Björn Fagerlind.

Finally, after a long wait and anxious memories from other skiers, Schmidhofer was run over by the local medical team on a sled.

– He must have been conscious the whole time and called his mother and told her it’s not that dangerous. It must be facial injuries, says Björn Fagerlind.
