Canadian skier James Crawford lifted both arms in celebration as soon as he came through the finish at the world championships on Thursday.
His second medal from major events followed a bronze in combined at last year’s Beijing Olympics.
Crawford has yet to win a World Cup race but has three podium results, most recently at a downhill in Italy in December. “There was one turn where I could have done better, and that is where Crawford has taken me today,” Kilde said. “He is a guy that can be fast everywhere because he charges and he dares to risk. And the snow here is a bit like that dry North American snow. He’s a good skier and that’s why he’s a capable of winning today.”
Kilde will compete in the men’s downhill on Sunday, while Shiffrin is expected back at the worlds for the women’s giant slalom next Thursday.
