The Blatind Artic Race

The Norwegian fiords crowned the new ISMF – Scarpa World cup winners. This morning on the Blatind show, a few kilometers from Tromso, the individual race officially closed the World Cup season.

For both, the uphill stretches were three.
 
The French William Bon Mardion, after being in the back ranks for a while, at the end of the third slope took a few meters’ advantage on the pack formed by Martin Anthamatten, Manfred Reichegger, Yannik Ecouer, Matteo Eydallin, Damiano Lenzi and Alexis Sevennec. It was during the final downhill slope that the French Bon Mardion completed his masterpiece. Extreme lines that he alone was capable of seeing and mostly keeping up to from the beginning to the end.
Thr World Cup winner stopped the clock at 1:10’41’’. Only the Swiss Anthamatten kept up with the leader, though by the finish line he gave a 42-second deficit. In third place, the Italian Matteo Eydallin managed in the last sprint to overtake Yannick Ecoeur and Manfred Reichegger.
 
As regards the women, Laetitia Roux dominated the race as easily as she did throughout the season. In the first part of the race, Gloriana Pellissier and Maude Mathis kept the French athlete in their sight, though little short of halfway through the race, Roux pushed on the throttle and took the win and the crystal cup.
