Moioli looking for “magic moment” as Snowboard Cross tour returns to Italy

It is likely that there will be several teenagers in the line-up at Milano Cortina next year, all hoping to follow in Moioli’s footsteps as Olympic champion. But looking at the Olympics now, Moioli is mostly hoping to enjoy the experience.“Having the Olympics in Italy is a great opportunity for me and the whole Italian team to enjoy the most important sport event in our own home. I love racing in Italy and I think the atmosphere will be great, I’m sure,” she says.“Of course I would like to win a medal, but that would be possible just at the end. Instead I want to enjoy my journey to it – more than I did in the past Olympics when I was thinking just about medals and didn’t really enjoy the process into it,” she explains.“On the other side we could have more pressure than other nations, but this depends on ourselves and how we handle it. I am a really experienced athlete now, after three Olympics, and I don’t want to feel the pressure but the joy to live an experience like that in my country, in Livigno, which is a second home for me.
