The Slovenian downhill world champion returns to the World Cup after more than a year of injury.
On October 22, 2017, the high altitude flight from Ilka Stuhec ended abruptly. At a training session in the Tyrolean Pitztal, the Slovenian had a cruciate ligament tear and then missed the Olympic season.
Previously, Stuhec had by far the best season of his career. Almost out of nowhere, the Speedspezialistin is ranked among the best in the world in Downhill and Super-G. She has won 6 World Cup races (4 races, 2 super-G) and has crowned her exceptional winter by winning the gold medal at the 2017 World Downhill Championships in St. Moritz.
I can be fast or not.
In Lake Louise, the 28-year-old will now return. Will she ever come back to her former level? "No idea," she says when asked where she stands for performance. "I trained mostly with our men's team, I can be fast or not, we'll see it soon."
Did not lose humor even in difficult times
Ilka Stuhec has always remained positive during her break.

By Friday at the first start at Lake Louise, Stuhec will have to put the cards on the table. In the first two training sessions, she finished in places 10 and 3, but she left a goal in the second practice session.
You will learn in the video above how Stuhec overcame her suffering and how she experienced the first workouts.
