  • A Folgaria Il 55° Trofeo Topolino Sci Attesi Atleti Da 30 Nazioni E 4 Continenti
    A Folgaria il 55° Trofeo Topolino Sci Attesi atleti da 30 nazioni e 4 Continenti Il Trofeo Topolino di sci alpino non è un evento agonistico come tanti altri. Dall’alto delle sue 55 edizioni, tutte disputate in Trentino, è un appuntamento con la storia, quasi una tappa obbligata per chi ambisce a frequentare un giorno i grandi palcoscenici delle Olimpiadi, dei Campionati Mondiali e della Coppa del Mondo. Basta infatti sfogliare l’albo d’oro di questa competizione per individuare campioni in erba, che poi hanno trovato la propria consacrazione internazionale qualche stagione più tardi, da Thöni a Gros, da Stenmark a Tomba, da Zurbriggen alla Compagnoni, da Girardelli a Rocca, da Kjus ad Hirscher, dalla Vonn alla Maze, da Innerhofer a Gross, da Kostelic a Peter Fill, senza tralasciare i giovani talenti attuali come Fenninger e Kristoffersen. Anche i due trionfatori dell’ultimo fine settimana di Coppa del Mondo, ovvero gli azzurri Nadia Fanchini e Dominik Paris, hanno iniziato la propria straordinaria carriera sportiva con il Trofeo Topolino. La bergamasca di Lovere si aggiudicò infatti lo slalom speciale della categoria ragazze nel 1999, mentre l’altoatesino della Val d’Ultimo si impose nel gigante ragazzi del 2002 e nel gigante allievi del 2004. Lo scorso fine settimana si sono imposti nelle discese libere di Chamonix (Paris) e di La Thuile (Fanchini). La manifestazione si svolgerà dal 27 febbraio al 5 marzo, per la sesta volta, sulle piste di Folgaria, nella ski area Alpe Cimbra Folgaria e Lavarone, che presenta le caratteristiche ideali per questa tipologia di evento, sia per i tracciati di gara e i servizi che propone, sia per la qualità dell’accoglienza del centro abitato nel quale vengono organizzate tutte le manifestazioni collaterali consacrate a Topolino, il personaggio simbolo della Disney emblema di divertimento e, al tempo stesso, ambasciatore di valori fondamentali come l’importanza dell’attività sportiva.
