Thomas Grandi (Canmore, AB) has done it again! After skiing to bronze in Wednesday's challenging giant slalom, he came one step closer to his first career slalom win on Thursday by clinching silver at Kranjska Gora (SLO). The team veteran, who will turn 33 on December 27, stepped on the podium after offering two solid and aggressive runs on the 'Podkoren 3' course, good for the Canadian Alpine Ski Team's seventh medal thus far with more than half of the World Cup races still to go. (Thank you to Johnny Crichton, Canadian Alpine Ski Team men's assistant coach for the great photos over the last couple of exciting days in Canadian ski racing)
