Fiamme Gialle is in the heart of Nadia: one year younger than her sister Elena but with equal grit and determination; undoubtedly the most famous sisters in the history of Italian skiing.
They were together at the beginning of their careers and decided to be together the day they announced their farewell to the white circus.
She had successes in Italy and on the international scene with gold medals, but also a lot of bad luck with those too many interruptions due to knee and shoulder injuries.
But Nadia loves skiing, she wanted to return to win and so… even injuries were tackled as if they were another challenge to overcome and to overcome at full speed to show that with her technique, her foot sensitivity she could still give a lot.
Then the decision… the one that she wants and that give a turn to his life as a woman: to be a mother, the dream of her life and a new challenge.
