British skiers set to make World Cup debuts

Thursday 15 January 2009
Two of the British Ski Team’s rising stars, Ed Drake and Dougie Crawford, will both make their FIS World Cup debuts on Friday, January 16, at Wengen in Switzerland.

Ski Club sponsored rider, Ed Drake
Dougie Crawford from Glasgow and Ski Club sponsored rider Ed Drake from Kingston-upon-Thames will compete in the Super Combined and Downhill events respectively at the FIS World Cup event on
Wengen’s infamous slope - The Lauberhorn.
 
Ed, who is 23 and has been sponsored by the Ski Club for 10 years , improved his world ranking last year by 457 places to 147th and his Super G ranking by 510 places to 96th.


As reigning overall British Men’s skiing champion, he has started the current season strongly, finishing 11th in a tough Europa Cup competition at Reiteralm in Austria last month, before heading over to North America and producing a string of top ten results. 


Dougie Crawford, 21, started last season with a superb 14th place in a Super G in Chile,
and followed up with several top ten finishes. He has been in good form this season, with
impressive performances in North America.
 
Over the past week both athletes have been competing in the Europa Cup competition in
Wengen. Competition has been fierce but both athletes have put in solid performances,
convincing their coaches that they are ready to take the next step and compete in a
World Cup event.
