If the championship is a success for him stands and falls with the run in Friday's giant slalom.
Although the giant slalom race will be very important for Jansrud, he has a relaxed attitude to it. He comes to the World Cup, bike apparel, with several great locations in the giant slalom World Cup this winter, but the victory has so far missed.
In the final race in the Austrian Hinterstoder weekend before the World Cup, he drove into 2nd place, only 17 hundredths of victory.
- I do not think so much that the giant slalom race is my big chance in this championship, but you are right in, discount cycling clothes, that success for me here in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, in many ways stands and falls with the efforts and the location there, "Jansrud.
He took silver in the giant slalom ahead of Aksel Lund Svindal in Vancouver last year and he has hung well in the World Cup in this exercise throughout the season.
Expected
- I've been waiting for this, cycling jerseys, Friday. The goal has always been to compete for medals in giant slalom ski race, "said Kjetil Jansrud NTB.
He ran out in super-G, was the downhill and finished in 10th place in the super combination. No results he is looking forward very over.
- No, it has not gone as I had hoped. I could not really hope to get medals out of nothing in speed races, for I have not had any particular flap in either downhill or super-G World Cup this year, "he said.
- In the super combination I could have due to greater expectations, but where it is not worked out for me. It is such a thing happens, and it was very good that it worked better for the others, "said Jansrud and thinking of gold to Aksel Lund Svindal and great slalom efforts of Lars Elton Myhre.
The course suits
- The route we are going to run here will be able to fit me very well. Apart from the steepest part, called "free fall" and of course is very demanding, I think the trail is pretty straightforward, "says Kjetil Jansrud NTB.
He says that it has gone well in training the last few days, and he makes no secret that he has completed a couple of very good quality sessions in Oberjoch, just an hour's drive from the World Cup city.
- What kind of relationship would you rather have
- If the relatively warm temperatures we have now should stay, will not do anything for me, but it is said that there should be a little colder, and then it becomes harder. Ideally I want snunderlag says Jansrud.
Friday's giant slalom will be the first and only event in this year's World Cup, where Norway is providing full quota. Besides Jansrud will also Aksel Lund Svindal, Truls Ove Karlsen and Leif Kristian Haugen run for Norway. (AFP)
