Lindsey Vonn ski pole stolen in Italy

On the off chance you are in Tarvisio, Italy keep an eye out for a hot pink Leki ski pole because it may belong to an American ski legend. Lindsey Vonn just posted to social media with the following plea:

“Someone took my pole in the parking lot today in Tarvisio. If you have seen it please respond to this. Thank you.” -Lindsey Vonn

While mix ups happen and sometimes you accidentally grab a ski pole off the rack that may not be yours, the likelihood of that happening is very low with a florescent hot pink and green pole that has a form fit curvature adjusted specifically to Lindsey’s body (optimized for aerodynamics because hundredths of seconds count).

If you find Lindsey’s pole she asks you DM her directly. Hopefully she can get it back promptly. Here’s some more images of her missing pole:
