The second stage of the Ski Mountaineering World Cup 2019 took place in Andorra last weekend with two separate disciplines, Individual and Vertical. On Saturday morning on the slopes of Arcalís Roberto Antonioli and Alba De Silvestro proved unbeatable on a race course, modified due to copious snowfall, with a vertical gain of 1700 meters in the men’s comp and 1500 meters in the women’s comp.

Antonioli finished in 1:23:30 to beat team-mate Matteo Eydallin by just 16 seconds, while France’s Xavier Gachet clocked into third after 1:25:49. In the women's competition Alba De Silvestro celebrated her first-ever World Cup victory after battling for 1:43:35, to beat Spain’s Claudia Galicia Cotrina (1:44:13) and France’s Lorna Bonnel.



The Vertical Race took place at Arinsal on Sunday morning and was won, after a +730m battle against gusty winds, by Switzerland’s Werner Marti and Victoria Kreuzer. Marti scored a time of 27;39, beating team-mate Rémi Bonnet by 4 seconds while Robert Antonioli finished third after 28:07. Kreuzer took gold in 34:24 to win the first Vertical competition of the 2019 season, ahead of "home" favorite Claudia Galicia Cotrina and Alba De Silvestro who, with one gold and one bronze medal, can be more that satisfied with this weekend.



The Ski Mountaineering World Cup 2019 continues this weekend at Le Dévoluy in France with the Individual and Sprint competitions.
