After three victories in Achleiten, the series of Christian Schumach and Donna Karacho ended on Saturday in the freestyle.
The Carinthian duo had to admit defeat in a heat battle with temperatures up to 30 degrees in the Schlosspark quadrangle with a good 74.39 percent on the German Stefanie Schatz-Weihermüller with C'est la vie, who achieved a score of 75.25.
"That's the way it is in sport, every winning streak comes to an end one day," the Olympic rider explained. "I'm still very satisfied, I just risked too much on a pirouette. Donna proved once again that she can be relied on, despite the high temperatures. And I saw Steffi ride, that was really a good round - she deserved to win."
