- My contract with the alpine national team expired last spring and I did not want to continue working with Sweden. I did not see any success with the national team's plan for the winter of 2019-2020, Heinzpeter explains and continues:
- I was asked if I could train ten Chinese riders against the Olympics at home. I thought it sounded exciting.
The contract extends through the 2022 Olympics. Together with the main responsible Austrian Willi Zechner, Henizpeter has a total of 20 riders on the speed and technology side to work with.
- We will compete mostly in Europe. We will run FIS (lower level) competitions and hopefully also start in some European Cup competitions.
- The goal is to have a guy and a girl on the start in downhill, big slalom and slalom in Beijing 2022. I am convinced that we will succeed. But talking about medals would be very wrong. Several of the riders have only raced for three seasons, Heinzpeter concludes.
