Erik Guay and Manny Osborne-Paradis are considered senior citizens in the warp-speed world of alpine skiing. But on Wednesday, Guay and Osborne-Paradis stopped the clock, literally, by winning world championship gold and bronze in the super-giant slalom at St. Moritz, Switzerland. With the victory, Guay, 35, becomes the oldest world champion in the history of alpine skiing and only the fourth man to win the world titles in both super-G and downhill. And in the meantime, he has another shot Saturday at the world championship podium in the downhill. The Invermere, B.C., skier had never before won a world championship medal.
