Andrea Filser is better than ever in giant slalom

That was remarkable: Andrea Filser made it to the finals twice at the giant Islaom races in Kranjska Gora.

The 27-year-old has never been so good in this discipline in the World Cup.

Kranjska Gora - When Andrea Filser swung off after crossing the finish line in the final and saw that her time was highlighted in green on the video screen, she raised her left arm cheering.

For the second time in a row, she had a respectable giant slalom appearance on the slopes in Kranjska Gora.

As on Saturday, the SV Wildsteig ski racer took 22nd place on Sunday - and scored a total of 18 World Cup points.

To date, the 27-year-old had never qualified for the second round of a World Cup Risen Slalom.

Filser was the only German at the races in Slovenia.

With her two results she also got the first Giant Slalom World Cup points for the DSV after Viktoria Rebensburg's career ended.

On Sunday Filser was in 27th place after the first round.

With a courageous drive in the final, she improved by five places.

The slope was demanding and icy;

a total of 17 drivers were eliminated.

On Saturday Filser was initially in 23rd place and moved up one rank.

The Italian Marta Bassino won on both days.
