The greatest downhiller Lindsey Vonn started preparation for the Olympics when she was 22 years in Minnesota. She had been practicing a lot when she was small and spending hours on practicing. She focused on the basics and taking tips from the Austrian ski coach. Every summer, she went on trips with her family to the Rocky Mountains, and participated in the camp in the mountains of Hood in Europe. She moved with her family to Vail, Colorado for her training when she was 12. Three years later, she won the first international championship and competed in the Olympic Games in the winter. She was a strong competitor. The most technical event in skiing, the fastest and longest is Downhill. One of the advantages that Vonn had is body mass. She was training more than the others. Also she won gold in Vancouver.
