biography
Filliol became French downhill champion in 1988 and won the national slalom championships in 1989 and 1990 . She won her first points in the World Cup on January 3, 1989 with 15th place in the Slalom in Maribor . Four weeks later, she started in Vail at the 1989 World Championships in the combination , in which she was eliminated in the second slalom run after she had finished the first run in twelfth place. Two years later, Filliol was also used in the combination at the 1991 World Championships in Saalbach-Hinterglemm , where she was eliminated in the second slalom run after finishing eighth in the first run. In the combined descent, which, in contrast to 1989, was held before the slalom, she finished 28th. Later she did not take part in any world championships.
In the World Cup, Filliol was in the top ten for the first time on January 9, 1990 with seventh place in the Hinterstoder slalom . In the beginning she could only rarely score and only achieved her second top 10 result three years later, on March 10, 1993, when she finished ninth in the Vemdalen slalom . During the next two years she was able to place herself in the top 10 more often in World Cup slaloms, with two podium places on January 9, 1994 in Altenmarkt-Zauchensee and third on December 18, 1994 in Sestriere . The 1993/94 season she finished 14th and the 1994/95 season 13th in the Slalom World Cup.
Filliol suffered the same fate in her two Olympic competitions as in her World Cup starts. At the 1992 Winter Olympics in Albertville , she first took 26th place in the combined descent and won the first run of the combined slalom the next day before she was eliminated in the second slalom run. In the special slalom held a week later, she was already out in the first round. At the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer , she only competed in slalom and no longer in combination, but fell out of the first round like two years earlier. After the 1996/97 season , in which an 18th place was her best World Cup result, Filliol ended her career.
