The Olympic champion and three -time world champion Nikita Kryukov noticed the positive impact of international skiing in Russia. His words are given by Sport24.
“The quality of tracks, refereeing, broadcasts improved. Interest in skiers has also increased. Of course, I would like, the international arena and athletes and fans. But the situation is now attracting fans within the country, ”Kryukov said. The former athlete added that at the stages of the Russian Cup there are more fans than the World Cup.
Kryukov also spoke about the attitude to the performance of Russians in international tournaments in neutral status. “The citizens themselves are crookedly, look askance at those who agree to neutral status,” Kryukov said.
