The 2025 FIS Alpine Skiing season is fast approaching, and Mikaela Shiffrin is gearing up for another record-breaking year. The American skiing sensation is seeking her sixth overall Crystal Globe title.

The win marked Shiffrin’s 96th World Cup triumph and her eighth World Cup slalom title. Her impressive margin of 1.24 seconds demonstrated her unwavering skill.
As the new season dawns, Shiffrin is focused on building momentum. With the first race in Soelden just weeks away, she’s intensifying her training.
To prepare for the European leg of the season, Shiffrin has announced her departure for Europe. She shared updates on Instagram.
Through a series of captivating photos, Shiffrin gave fans a glimpse into her rigorous training regimen.
Her Instagram post was succinct yet telling, captioned “About that time. Off to Europe.” This declaration signals her readiness.
With her sights set on another historic season, Mikaela Shiffrin will undoubtedly be the one to beat as she pursues her sixth Crystal Globe title.
