Sofia Goggia has repeatedly explained that he does not give up to others, as many champions most of the time they do, the management of his messages and posts on social networks: he is alone, for a choice of authenticity and is seen. From there they pass its culture, its readings that go beyond skiing, its often deep thoughts and also the lucidity with which it analyzes its races, successes and failures. It is certainly part of these messages the last forwarded on Istagram in these hours, in which the male alpine skiing national team has reached the Parvachoosing to go to try their hand at the tracks of male colleagues, A place that for a few weeks has not been a place like any other in fact in a training accident Matteo Franzoso has lost his life, a fact that triggered an intense debate on the risks of alpine skiing in this historical era, in which we participated by hosting the voices of Kristian Ghedina and Paolo De Chiesa.
Sofia who never only sees the stakes of the track, and who has never hidden his faith, expressed in his post deeply moved: “Gugidi, Schidi, crazy: thanks guys”, he wrote to his companions, “because you had courage and you reminded me what it means to have it; Because remaining we could face fear together. Because still in Ushuaia (where the women’s national team was trained, ed.), Feeling deeply shaken, I asked myself many questions and the decision to reach you anyway to La Parva proved to be difficult for me to be of emotional management; know that you would remain, it gave me strength».
“Training with you,” wrote Sofia, so with the capital of courtesy, rare Avis on social media, “was a privilege. And thanks also to all the male staff for the work done: It was not easy to look beyond what were the limits of your momentary horizon, yet you did it, in your immense pain, but in the maximum of your professionalism. Thanks Gas, Babi, Darwin, for supporting me, for how we worked and for the moments of sharing: in this situation far from simple, you protected me and helped me manage me ». After the thanks, he turned to Matteo, a direct thought including his companion disappeared in his open letter: «Dear Matteo, the community of Farellones dedicated a touching commemoration to you, there were many outside that church to greet you, there was a fog that afternoon and when they pronounced your name started snowing … your companions made a cross with the pieces of the fence that you broke in the impact. Both the first day and the last one, with training concluded, stopped, to that cross. I sat there in what was a moment of inner recollection; I made the sign of the cross, I turned the palm of the hands up by reciting the our Father several times, the tears rejoiced my face. Dear Matteo, I’m so sorry, a lot for what happened to you … your absence has turned into presence, a constant presence that will remain in our minds and hearts. It was an extremely complicated gathering but feeling so united and solidarity and continuing to work for that dream that chasing it too, you also supported us in our difficult everyday life ».
