From Alpine Canada:
Reece Howden (Chilliwack, BC) capped off the fifth race in 10 days of the cross-Alps tour with his second win of the season at the FIS Ski Cross World Cup Innichen (ITA). This is Howden’s second win in Innichen and his 13th career World Cup victory.
It was tight racing on the turn packed course that had hardened up overnight. The track and conditions suited Howden who finished first in all his heats.
“This was the classic Innichen with nice hard, fast snow and multiple racing lines,” said Howden. “This cross-Alps tour to start the season is a lot of racing in a short period of time and we couldn’t do it without the amazing support we have. We have such a great team of coaches, techs, and staff. Couldn’t do it without them and the support of our great sponsors. I’m happy to come home from it with a couple of wins.”
“I’m looking forward to celebrating with our Canadian family here and then getting home for some family time over the holidays.”
