"It is always nice to win at home with friends and family in attendance. A World Cup win in Rettenbach means a lot to me, and can only be beaten by a World Championship title," commented Michael Stocker. "I am happy with my form and will try to maintain it, train hard and we will see if the title is possible at the end of August, early September when the World Championships take place in Goldingen (SUI)."
