    Alice Robinson has shown she's a quick learner when it comes to ski racing on hills for the first time

    Alice Robinson has shown she's a quick learner when it comes to ski racing on hills for the first time


    The 20 year old is savouring her best World Cup Super G result, an impressive fourth in the third race of the season at St Moritz.

    Her rivals had skied the slopes numerous times over the years but Robinson had only skied the race hill once, 24 hours earlier in finishing 24th.

    Co-coach Chris Knight says it's a positive sign ahead of this weekend's race in Val d'Isere in France.
