The organisation of such an important event as the FIS Alpine Ski World Cup in Jasná is undoubtedly important not only from the competition point of view and picking the points in the rankings.
The fact that the elite competitors will visit Slovakia is a great motivation for young talents under the Tatras. Especially for those who grow up in the same places as Petra Vlhová. They want to be like her, their life is a hard work “I started skiing when I was five. I really enjoy it and I want to be like Peta Vlhová," says Adela Macíková from the Jasná Alpine Ski Club.
Children from the ski club are currently preparing on the slopes of Jasná and are anxiously waiting for the World Cup on the home slopes when they will be able to see their role model with their own eyes.
