Description

Carolina Kostner

One person I personally admire is Carolina Kostner, an Italian ice skater.Winner of the bronze medal at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, 2012 world champion, medalist five more times at the World Championships, five-time European champion, medalist six more times at the European Championships, winner of the 2011 Grand Prix Figure Skating Final, bronze medal at the 2003 World Junior Championships, and nine-time Italian champion, Carolina also finished three consecutive seasons as the world number one in the ISU rankings. Carolina Kostner started skating at the age of 4. In an interview she said: "Half my family, on my father's side, is in the world of sport, while on my mother's side there is more affinity with the arts. For me, figure skating was a good mix of the two." Despite the past of her mother, a national skater in the 1970s, Carolina had initially actually started practicing alpine skiing and competing in downhill, like her cousin, Isolde Kostner. Carolina said that at first she started skating "just for fun" and practiced both skiing and skating until she was 12, when she had to choose between the two sports. She commented: "I liked skiing more for fun and so I chose skating."When her city's ice rink closed in 1999 due to landslide damage, Carolina chose to work with Michael Huth in Oberstdorf, Germany, about a four-hour drive from her home in Ortisei. Kostner explained that she could not stay at her home if she wanted to continue skating and that if she did not move she would have to stop. She said: "My dad told me that if I wanted to go somewhere to skate I really should make the right decision about the place. I went to Oberstdorf and realized that this was really the right place."In the 2000-2001 and 2001-2002 seasons he competed only in the Junior category, also taking part in some junior grand prix competitions and junior world championships. In particular, in the 2000-2001 season he won the national junior title. Carolina debuted in the Senior category, while continuing to compete in juniors as well. After winning the Junior Grand Prix event in France, Kostner was called up for the first time to the Final of this competition circuit, in which she took second place. She also became the first Italian skater to win a medal at the World Junior Championships, as she won the bronze medal. At senior level, However, Carolina won her first national title and then participated for the first time in both the European championships and the world championships, finishing in 4th and 10th place respectively. In January 2012, in Sheffield, Carolina won the European championships, winning the continental title for the fourth time out of a total of 10 appearances in that event. He took first place in both fractions of

the competition, earning a total of 183.55 points.Carolina despite all the disappointments that life gave her went on and continued also thanks to the support of her mom to do the thing she knew best, which was to skate. Carolina during her career has carried the Italian flag over and over again on numerous podes, she has always performed for herself first of all and above all for the multitude of fans who over time have started to follow and admire her, I can say with great pride that I met this great sportswoman last year in Bologna during bol on ice. Just think that just to try to look like her now 9 years ago I had myself enrolled in skating, when I was little I was very naïve and I thought I could become as good as her;let's say that our two sports careers were just a little different but I am happy anyway at least I can say that I tried no? Well what to say after the scandal that led her to have to move away from her sport for 2 years we can say that despite her age that in skating is already considered very advanced continues to amaze and amaze young and to make the people who follow her proud to be her fans....
