The 27-year-old took to social media to admit he was returning home to undergo further tests but hoped it was "just" a fracture to one of the two largest bones in his left forearm.

Kolb stunned the DH racing world when he took home victory in round two of the 2023 World Cup season in Austria. His victory was the first Austrian elite men's victory in Leogang.

ppgad@pucrs.br I am passionate about everything that has 2 wheels: in my youth I practiced competitive cycling on the road and on the track with good results. At the age of 18 I moved to cross country competing at national/international level as U23. Once I passed Elite, I made the choice to take things easier from the training point of view, and that's how my love for gravity disciplines was born, training as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made my passion my profession by managing 3 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way, everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube 'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
