There were wins for Lucas Eguibar and Michela Moioli in snowboard cross on 6 March, in the latest FIS World Cup races in the Swiss resort of Veysonnaz. Spains Eguibar topped the podium ahead of Nick Baumgartner and Alessandro Haemmerle. Eguilbar is fourth in the overall World Cup standings on 2,766 points, with Olympic champion Pierre Vaultier on top with 4,640 points and already confirmed as the World Cup winner overall.
I am so excited because we have a World Cup in Spain, the last World Cup in Spain at Baqueira Beret, said Eguibar. I go there so strong and fight for the podium again.
In the womens races, Moioli registered her first victory of the season, but it wasnt enough to replace Eva Samkova, who finished fourth, at the top of the standings. Moioli has been consistent throughout the year, and now leads Samkoba 4,650 to 4,260 with just one race left in the season.
I feel very good, she said It is a fantastic day because I got my first victory of the season after four podiums, I am very, very happy. I dont have any words.
