Beaver Creek, Colorado — Sandro Viletta of Switzerland has a fear of flying. Only, that anxiety doesn't carry over to ski racing.Viletta soared through a demanding Birds of Prey course on Saturday, flying over bumps on the super-G course and attacking sections of the hill few dared to challenge.When he crossed the finish line, Viletta glanced up at the scoreboard and quickly began pumping his ski poles in jubilation. He was flying quite high after his first World Cup win.Starting way back in 30th and with snow falling, Viletta held nothing back and finished in a time of 1 minute, 18.71 seconds to overtake Aksel Lund Svindal of Norway by 0.20 seconds. Beat Feuz of Switzerland finished in third place.
