ÖSV President Peter Schröcksnadel, the good performances of Dave Ryding seem to be a thorn in the side. There is no other way to explain why the 76-year-old Tyrolean, who is also a co-owner of Hinterstoder-Wurzeralm Bergbahnen AG, has given the British slalom specialist a kind of training ban on “his” mountain, the Höss.

As reported by the “Oberösterreichische Nachrichten” newspaper, privileges have been withdrawn from the previous year’s runners-up of Kitzbühel, such as the use of the infrastructure of the provincial service centre. We are very disappointed about this step, but we can’t do anything about it,”says Pyhrn-Priel Managing Director Thomas Scholl.

It is said that the pain threshold for Schröcksnadel was reached when Ryding opened the season with best time in the Levi slalom. The 31-year-old has already found a new sponsor after his expulsion from the Stoder Valley in the Öztal.
