  • 10 Exploits De Skieurs Étrangers
    LA LEGENDE DU SKI ALPIN Ce qu’il ne fallait pas louper Dix exploits de skieur(euse)s internationaux Après m’être frotté à l’épineuse question de la sélection des dix plus grands exploits de skieurs français, je rechausse les skis avec un défi encore plus insurmontable, à savoir le choix des dix plus grands exploits de l’histoire du ski alpin. Et même s’il est alambiqué de juxtaposer les époques, c’est avec force subjectivité et totale partialité que j’impose aux tribuns avertis mon anthologie plébéienne. 1 – 1937 / 1939. Les deux triplés de Christl Cranz. Championnats du monde de Chamonix et Zakopane. Christl Cranz est un nom qui ne résonne presque plus dans le monde du ski alpin. Pourtant, la trace laissée par cette championne allemande de légende est aussi profonde que son palmarès est épais. Et même si ses liens avec le national socialisme restent sulfureux, il faut lui accorder une place privilégiée dans ce palmarès. Première championne olympique de l’histoire (combiné en 1936), Cranz est la skieuse la plus titrée (12) et la plus médaillée (15) des championnats du monde de ski. Il faut dire qu’en gagnant toutes les courses disputées en 1937 et 1939 (descente, slalom et combiné), elle réalisa une razzia unique dans l’histoire de cette compétition. 2 – 1956. Toni Sailer, roi des Jeux. Jeux Olympiques de Cortina d’Ampezzo Vingt ans. C’est l’âge du jeune Autrichien Toni Sailer lorsqu’il débarque à Cortina d’Ampezzo pour disputer les VIIe Jeux olympiques d’hiver au programme desquels figurent trois épreuves de ski alpin : le géant, le slalom et la descente.

    THE THIN LINE: Life on the Edge Skier Biographies BODE MILLER Bode Miller burst onto the World Cup scene as an 18-year-old in 1996 and first gained widespread recognition when he won two silver medals at the 2002 Winter Olympics in the Giant Slalom and Combined events. Miller has won a total of four gold medals and one silver medal at the World Championships. In the 2004/2005 Season, Miller won his first overall FIS World Cup title, outlasting Austrian Benjamin Raich. In the 2006/07 Season, Miller finished 4th overall and won the Super G title. In May 2007, Miller announced that he was leaving the U.S. Ski Team to race as an independent. PICABO STREET One of the most prolific women’s racers to ever grace the U.S. Ski Team, Picabo Street was most definitely a ski racing personality. The native of tiny Triumph, Idaho announced her retirement from competition following the 2002 women’s Olympic downhill at Snowbasin, Utah, ending a career that included nine career World Cup victories, the 1995 and 1996 World Cup downhill discipline titles and a trio of World Championships medals to go along with her two Olympic medals, including the Super-G gold at the 1998 Nagano Games. In addition, Street collected a total of four U.S. National titles during her illustrious career, despite being injured and away from ski racing for two years.

Proprio in questa località nel 2007 esordì nel massimo circuito dello sci e nello stesso luogo, sei anni dopo, è entrato nella storia dello "sport bianco" perché è il decimo sciatore di sempre a conquistare per due anni consecutivi la Coppa del Mondo di Sci Alpino.
