In the neighborhood hanging on the walls Transparent to the house and railings. “World-class” and “Bravo Corinne,” it says. The neighbors show their Pride on Corinne Suter, who returned with a Bronze in the Super G and a silver medal in the downhill of the world Cup in Sweden, to Schwyz home.
The 24-Year-old receives journalists anywhere in the municipality, but at home. You have not lived with the parents, if it is like last in Are or now: In Crans-Montana, the season continues with the world Cup.
How does it feel to be a Star?
A Star, Yes . . . (laughs) I told no one, and I don’t think it suits me.
But as two-time world Cup medalist will change for you certain things.
There are more media requests than before, on the road, I am recognized more often and addressed, my Name is perhaps more well-known. But otherwise, everything remains as before. I have this in mind. The medals will make me a different person.
“I’m not going skiing, in order to earn money. But because it is my passion.”
An Interview here, a gig there, a reception in Schwyz – was it too much for you?
I didn’t know what to expect, I had experienced such a hype. My coach helped me to master the Whole. I’m someone who would prefer to be at the same time in many places, but especially in the world Cup, the. After the Super-G, I wanted to see my parents, I was so looking forward to it. But I had to wait until 21 o’clock, because before have so many of duty were scheduled for appointments. I also couldn’t do things that are according to a normal Competition: Extension and Physio.
Corinne Suter is celebrated in the House of Switzerland.
Sounds like effort.
I found it not so, these hours I have enjoyed also. Jasmine Flury, which was won by 2017 in St. Moritz Super-G, said to me, you would have then cost the Moment. And that you regret in hindsight. These words a couple of times went through my head.
world Cup medals, you make sure to a rich woman . . .
. . . Yes, exactly! (laughs) of Course, this is not so. And I’m not going skiing, in order to earn money, but because it is my passion. This is important to me. In marketing, I’m careful: I’m not advertising safe for all, as every franc out of it.
clearly, you need to come in order that it is not only about you as a Skier is being discussed, but also about trivialities. For example, if you type in the Austrian TV in Switzerland English information.
(laughs loudly) It came out completely wrong. I asked the Reporter if I could on Swiss German answers, but merely, like the other Swiss, respectively. He said to me: just Talk how you want. I thought: Okay. And so, as the Reporter responded, he had to have understood me. But after the Interview I received a lot of messages: Why are you talking about not high-German? You can’t even?
Corinne Suter speaks with ORF-Reporter.
“If I can, I speak Swiss-German”: Corinne Suter comments to your ORF-Interview.
After their return from Sweden dealing with the media, events in your parents ‘ house in Schwyz. Why at home?
Why not? My parents are simple, I am too. I don’t mind if others see, where I grew up. We are down-to-earth people who have nothing to hide.
“to Me, the rustic, the Traditional, the mountains, the lake is like: I have everything here.”
do you Accept as true that all of them are happy about the successes?
There are very many. I received about 500 messages, the overwhelming majority of it was very positive.
Not all?
There are always envious. I also read what the wrote to me, but there is nothing for me.
After their Bronze-travel in the Super-G the tears of joy flowed. Are you an emotional person?
Actually, I’m not built so close to the water. But in Sweden, a childhood dream came true, and in a race in which I had not expected.
In the case of Corinne Suter roll down the tears.
they Said, simply: I’ll drive, I’ll see what comes of it?
In the training, I was good, but this Morning it was bitter cold, minus 25 degrees. That’s why I wrote my coach: “I’ll pass on the race.” He replied: “Let us, the race to tackle like a training run, then it’ll be fine.” And then I returned with a medal to the Hotel.
there Was a Moment in which you thought of last summer when, after a blood poisoning, Amputation of the right foot threatened?
no, I won fortunately distance. I consider myself on the Positive – the fact that I can go skiing again. And that I within get a relatively short time, the Training gap.
Thought you already quitting?
If a couple of races in a row, no desire to run, is already the record: I have no more desire. But of course I’m not serious. I can be impulsive and pull myself back, in the meantime, after a Competition for a couple of minutes to collect myself. Otherwise, I say suddenly, things I regret afterwards.
you once said: “The biggest pressure I put on myself, although I ranks, the always something to thank for.” How was it at the world Cup?
Before the Super-G I had two starting numbers to choose from: the 1 and the 19. I like high start-up numbers, actually, not particularly because you will notice that like the previous athletes are driven. But the coach advised me to take a very high number, so I opted for the 19. And I had brought in the Morning for the sightseeing so much Conviction, it was not necessary, other riders in front of me to watch.
Are you a perfectionist?
Yes, but everything has its limits. At the world Cup, I decided to visit the departure route countless times and every curve. Otherwise you start to lose yourself in the Detail, and it is counterproductive. It is unnecessary to make things complicated, which can also be kept simple. And skiing is easy.
Really?
If you can do it once, not unlearned so quickly.
How do you deal with pressure to succeed?
Actually, I can’t deal with him quite well now, me high expectations off balance. And yet, I would like to make it all right. So I’m holding. The coaches make me aware that I should concentrate on the Essentials. I had to be selfish and learning. In the past few years, I looked too often to the left and to the right, I always tried to be supportive. I would have had to do with myself enough.
How have you helped colleagues?
For example, I showed after a bad race, compassion, and morally erect.
a fall of a rider can Distract in front of you. How do you deal with it?
Then the ugly, logically. But you have to bring it to finished, such pictures hide. I have a certain amount of looseness. As the others prepare, like other drive – on, it can’t affect me. I tried too often to force something with the crowbar, but that didn’t make me fast. Now I have on the Ski is a cool feeling.
do you Know fear of failure?
no, not at all. Up to ten seconds before the Start, I’m still well responsive. Sometimes it is for me a very entertaining to how different the driver’s behavior. There are those that lead to self-talk. I enjoy what I’m watching sometimes.
are you rooted in Schwyz. What gives you this area?
We are often on the go, but I’ll always come back. To me, the rustic, the Traditional, the mountains, the lake is like: I have everything here.
And vibration-resistant like.
O Yes! This is a part of Switzerland, and the atmosphere at the Firm is wonderful. In the lunch break, everyone in the audience can leave his backpack on his place, he doesn’t need to be afraid of it being stolen.
What do you dream?
Of an Olympic victory. I wrote as a child in the friendship books.
What you need to treat yourself in the holidays after the season?
I travel to the sea, I need two, three weeks off. Normally, no one has to drive, when it comes to Training. But at this time I do nothing and eat what I want.
What does luxury mean to you?
Not much. The other day there was a dinner a Multi-course, many of the appetizers. All good, but to me that’s Simple dear, I don’t need a fancy pants. Or the fly: one day I received a seat in Business Class. That was nice, but I would never spend so much money for it. I don’t care to sit in the Economy Class.
