		Montillet, who is in her 12th year on the World Cup circuit, had waited longer than almost any of the other downhill skiers to record her first World Cup downhill victory.
		Montillet, who won the gold in downhill at the Salt Lake Olympics, even had her own cheering section in Lake Louise which Montillet acknowledged each time she crossed the finish line by turning and waving to the grandstand.
		Montillet said she worked hard in the off-season on her training for the downhill and super-G. "We did 50 days of training this summer in France and in Chile," she said.
