Norway's Olympic super-G champion Kjetil Jansrud won his fourth World Cup race of the season on Saturday taking the super-G at Val Gardena.
The 29-year-old -- who was winning the seventh race of his career -- timed 1min 33.87sec, 46-hundreths of a second quicker than Dominik Paris of Italy with Austrian Hannes Reichelt third, 54-hundreths of a second adrift.
Jansrud -- also Olympic bronze medalist in the downhill -- extended his lead in the overall World Cup standings to 152 points over Austria's three-time defending champion Marcel Hirscher.
The in-form Scandinavian said the absence of his injured compatriot, Aksel Lund Svindal, had increased the pressure and responsibility to get a result.
"The most important thing is to remain in good shape. Aside from that, in terms of how I feel on the skis, there's no difference to last season.
"On Monday I'll go to my parents for Christmas close to Lillehammer. It won't be all rest though as on Christmas Day I have to catch a flight for Italy for the downhill at Santa Caterina."
