neil sunday Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 Does anybody know if Michelle Gorgone is in a slump, or just having an off year??? Seemslikelast year she was ready to be the top american if not a top contender at the WC level. This years results just seem off... Anybody have an idea? I see she quit riding donek, and moved to Oxess, I wonder if this has anything to do with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philfell Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 She has always been hit or miss. I'm sure the resent results you have seen are SL results.........She is never too psyched up to race SL. It's still super early in the season. I bet money on it that she'll get at least one World Cup podium this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil sunday Posted December 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Glad to hear nothing is wrong. I hope she lands one or more for the US. How's your season going? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timinor Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 The times I saw her race, I felt she really stood out above the other US girls. I too felt she would emerge at the top of the US team and among the best in the world...and she still may. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philfell Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 I don't know what she has been working on, since I'm not her coach. But if I were I'd try to get her more centered on her heelside, she tends to ride too front footed sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
