(February 8, 1997)
BEND, Ore. -- Newly crowned world champion Sondra Van Ert (Ketchum, Idaho)
overcame tricky weather conditions Friday to finish second in a World Cup
giant slalom snowboard race at Mt. Bachelor Ski Area. Van Ert led three U.S.
women to top 10 finishes, while Chris Klug (Aspen, CO) was fifth in the men's
competition, leading three U.S. men into the top 10.
Margherita Parini of Italy won the women's GS with a time of 2:27.66. Van
Ert finished in 2:27.88, with Rosey Fletcher (Girdwood, Alaska) fifth and
hometown favorite Leslee Olson 10th. Lynn Ott, another rider from Bend, was
14th.
In the men's race, Austrian Peter Pechhacker took first place in 2:13.52,
more than a second over another Austrian, Harald Walder. The top American
was Klug, who placed fifth with a time of 2:16.56. Mike Jacoby (Hood River,
Ore.) was sixth, with Jeff Greenwood (Granby, Conn.) eighth.
Soft snow, freezing rain, snow flurries and poor visibility challenged the
competitors. "Mt. Bachelor did a great job clearing the course of the new,
softer snow," Van Ert said, "but we also had some freezing rain and then
light snow in the afternoon. I wiped my goggles a few times during my first
run, and I don't have to do that very often. The second run it was more light
snow. Just enough to keep you off-balance a little."
