Alice Robinson Continues Podium Dominance with Seventh Consecutive Podium Finish

Alice Robinson (Queenstown, 23) has continued her exceptional podium streak, claiming her career 17th and seventh consecutive Giant Slalom World Cup podium with a second place finish at the FIS Giant Slalom World Cup in Are overnight NZT.

Robinson was thrilled with her result, saying; “It’s amazing – 17 podiums and seven in a row, I was really happy I could keep the podium streak alive. I am still chasing after Federica and I have one more chance to try and get her at World Cup Finals.”

Today’s Giant Slalom in Are marked the eighth of nine scheduled Giant Slalom World Cup races for the 2025 season, with just the Final’s remaining in late March. High winds at the top of the course resulted in the use of a lower start and a shortened course for the athletes who had to hunt for every hundredth of a second of speed.

Federica Brignone of Italy was the first athlete on course, putting down an error free run and setting the time to beat for the first run. Robinson was sitting in fifth after her first run, +0.65 seconds off Brignone’s time in the tight race.

Robinson tore down the course for her second run, skiing her way into the leaders seat, but with four athletes still to come, a podium was not yet guaranteed. However, her time held strong right up until Brignone put down a blistering second run to take the win by an impressive +1.36 ahead of Robinson who claimed second position. Eighteen-year-old Lara Colturi of Albania rounded out the podium in third

“There are so many positive, although I wasn’t very happy with my skiing in the first run, and even the second run didn’t feel very good. I think it was quite close with the times and I was lucky to come in second on the right side of the hundredths.” – Robinson.

All eyes will be on Robinson and Brignone at the final race of the season, the Giant Slalom World Cup Finals in Sun Valley, Idaho on the 26th of March NZT, where they will be battling it out for the FIS Giant Slalom Crystal Globe.

Robinson is looking forward to the final race of the season, saying; “Federica has been amazing with all these wins, but I guess me sticking close in second, it’s keeping the points. It’s cool that we get to have a final shoot out in Sun Valley in a couple weeks.”
