BAD KLEINKIRCHHEIM, Austria - Organizers were rebuilding the infrastructure at a womens World Cup course after a storm destroyed the finish area and the safety fencing, forcing the cancellation of a downhill on Saturday. Ryan Callahan Lightning Jersey Authentic .The International Ski Federation said theres still a chance a super-G can be held on the same course Sunday, though temperatures rising to above 10 degrees Celsius (50F) have been affecting the icy slope.Unfortunately the chance is quite big we wont succeed, FIS womens race director Atle Skaardal said. Its all really soft now. We lost five to 10 centimetres of snow over the last couple of hours. Incredible how fast it goes.Temperatures were expected to drop again, but another storm has been forecast for Sunday afternoon, prompting FIS to bring forward the starting time of the super-G by 15 minutes to 11 a.m. (1000 GMT).An even earlier start wasnt possible due to other televised events, including the opening run of a mens World Cup slalom in Adelboden, Switzerland.An overnight storm blew away parts of the safety fencing along the course and ruined booths for TV and radio commentators as well as a temporary stage for the winners ceremonies, public bib draws and concerts.Its pretty brutal, Skaardal said. The storm came in at 5.30 a.m. and destroyed everything within two hours. The local organizers are very motivated to fight for Sundays race. We have to build up everything again and must see whats possible.The super-G could be Lindsey Vonns next chance to match the all-time record of 62 womens World Cup wins by Annemarie Moser-Proell of Austria.Finally I figured out this downhill course and we have a wind storm... ugh. Race is cancelled. (hashtag)badtime, Vonn tweeted. Hopefully (Cortina dAmpezzo) can pick up the cancelled DH from today. Would really love another race there.
