ALPINE SKIING IN RUSSIA
He feels that his sport lives in the shadow of ice hockey in Russia. "I have no fans in Russia. It [alpine skiing] is not very popular on television. You can't see the Russian cup or watch the national championships. We have a lot of snow in our country and it is very cold, but it is all about the hockey." (ONS, 05 Feb 2014)
