This is the sixth year Steam- boat has staged the combined World Cup event, which for the past four seasons Nn an op- portunity for the U.S. Ski Team to showcase thetalents of Steamboat native Todd Lodwick. In both events this week, Lodwick jumped beneath expectations. But thanks to brilliant racing, Lodwick kept himself in the hunt for top-10 results. In contrast to Sunday’s windy skiers raced out of the starting gate in clusters, which made for an incredible display of pack skiing. Still reeling from a spectacular crash during Sunday's jumping, young Finnish star Hannu Manninen sat out Tuesday’s event. Manninen denied the wind had anything to i with his gan ash it had appeared a had knocked off hisleft ski. The binding simply failed, said the Finn, who has fallen to eighth in World Cup standings. U.S. skiers Lodwick and World Cup rookie Bill Demong of New York pulled off middling jumps of 83 and 84.5 meters, respectively, putting them about a minute be- hind the jump leaders at the start ofthe race. Replicating his Sunday perfor- mance, when heclocked thefastest racing time for the 15K, Lodwick passed 15 racers to finish 12th, 34.2 seconds behind the winner. With the third-fastest time for the 7.5K race in 19:28.9, Lodwick is establishing himself as one of the fastest cross country skiers on the combined circuit — and that's saying a lot for an American competing in a European-owned sport. “T'm mentally frustrated with my jumping,” said Lodwick, who is overhauling his take-off technique with mixed results. Lodwick said heis going to put jump- ing aside for the next week or two and do sometelemark skiing in Jackson, Wyo., before returning to the World Cup circuit, which re- sumes in Germany on Jan. 3.
