Welcome and Opening of the Meeting The Chairman, Bernhard Russi (SUI), welcomed all present to the 86th meeting of the FIS Alpine Committee in Costa Navarino (GRE). 2. Roll Call Janez Fleré (FIS) conducted the roll call (see enclosure). Apologies were received from Claus Ryste (NOR), Janne Leskinen (FIN) members of the Executive Board, David Howden (NZL), Chairman of the Australian New Zealand Cup and Pernilla Wiberg, Chair of the Alpine Working Group. 3. Approval of the Agenda The Agenda, without additions, was unanimously approved. 4. Approval of the Minutes The Minutes of the 85th Meeting held in October 2017 in Zürich (SUI) were unanimously approved without comment. 5. Reports 5.1 Chairman (Bernhard Russi, SUI) The Chairman gave a report. The following are his words verbatim:. “Sunshine and shadows”. The focus of last the winter season was without any doubt the Olympic Winter Games 2018 in PyeongChang (KOR), although we cannot forget our daily business. Our draught horses clearly are: - the World Cup, - the different Continental Cups, as well as - all the other 2’700 FIS competitions which take place all over the world. This is where alpine racing breathes, where it has its tradition, where the fans/followers and the enthusiasm/passion for our sport can be found. During the Olympic Winter Games we faced different challenges. In South-Korea our sports was at the highest level, with exciting, refreshing and partly also surprising performances of our athletes. Apart from that, we were challenged/struggling with unusually strong winds. Nature could only be influenced by competent and clever decisions of our jury members and all competitions were carried out under fair conditions, partly also under excellent weather and snow conditions. The support of the spectators left something to be desired. The partly disappointing spectator stands, the lack of fan clubs as well as the lack of understanding of most of the attendees could not produce the fire of a festive atmosphere. Therefore it‘s not surprising that only at the very last competition, the Team Event, were the stands crowded with enthusiastic spectators The Team Event as a parallel format has taken place for the first time ever in the Olympic Programme and was a huge success. The development of this basic idea shows us that new formats, new revolutionary ideas require a certain time until they are accepted within our sport. In 2005 the Team Event was part of the World Championships Programme and since 2010 it has been included in the World Cup Calendar. Finally after 13 years it has become an Olympic Minutes FIS Committee for Alpine Skiing, Costa Navarino (GRE), 16.05.2018 - 5 - event. In the meantime we use various formats in parallel events, which will now have to be refined and adapted to various competition levels. The fascinating part of our sport, the artistic movements on snow and ice, the control and handling of speed, the course setting and natural barriers are unfortunately also accompanied by tragic and sad accidents. David Poisson and Max Burkhart did not have the luck that fortunately accompanies most of the alpine racers. The luck to be back on the race slopes only some weeks or month after an injury. They had to pay their love of our sport with their young lives. Time is running fast and will heal deep wounds, but David and Max will always remain in our hearts and will never be forgotten! Similarly, we have to keep in mind that a certain risk always remains in our sport. And that despite ongoing security measures, we have to daily improve and develop our beloved sport.” 6. Executive Board (Bernhard Russi, SUI) There have been three meetings here in Costa Navarino and several matters have been discussed. The following proposal is forwarded to the FIS Council. Special quotas for Alpine Team Event at World Cup Finals The Executive Board supported the proposal of the National Ski Association of Andorra to invite the host nation to the Alpine Team Event to be held during the World Cup Finals in Soldeu (AND). Honorary member The Alpine Committee unanimously proposes that Toni Vogrinec, SLO be named an “honorary member” of the Alpine Committee. The Alpine Committee supported all proposals 7. Evaluation 7.1 Timing Working Group (Daniel Defago, FIS) The Timing Working Group had its meeting in Zürich and Daniel Defago reported on behalf of the Working Group. The timing device SUMMIT SYSTEMS SRT1000 has expired and it has only been used in Panorama BC (CAN) for 22 races this year. The company is currently investigating if a re- homologation is possible. We propose also to make a small rule change about the synchronization, this rule change should make the work easier for the timekeeper. It will be included in the Rules Sub- Committee proposals. We made also some adjustments for the electronic timing report to be more adapted with the Parallel format and to cover more FIS disciplines too. Electronic time reports will be mandatory for CC, SB and FS. The Timing Working Group has a new member: Tommy Jauhojärvi (CEO EMIT) Norwegian Timing Company, he has a good experience about timing in the lower level CC races. 7.2 Classification of Alpine Competitors (Jeff Weinman, USA) Special Quotas for the Southern. Hemisphere were announced. The following proposal were presented to Alpine Committee for approval: Special Quotas Minutes FIS Committee for Alpine Skiing, Costa Navarino (GRE), 16.05.2018 - 6 - 7.1.7 Country Groups - For CAN-USA / DEN-FIN-ISL-NOR-SWE / ARG-BOL-BRA-CHI / AUS-FIJ-NZL / CHN- JPN-KOR-MGL-IND-PAK / LBN-ROU-RSA-CYP-LUX-POR-AND-SRB-MON-SMR- IRL): maximum 30 (FRA (Pyrenees) – ESP-AND: 40) for each nation for races organised in a country of that country group.

  • Erik Guay Becomes Oldest World Champion in Alpine Skiing History
    Erik Guay becomes oldest world champion in Alpine skiing history Associated PressFeb 8, 2017, 7:38 AM EST ST. MORITZ, Switzerland (AP) — Erik Guay led the veteran Canadians over the favored Norwegians in the super-G on Wednesday and became the oldest gold medalist at the world ski championships. The 35-year-old Guay beat Olympic super-G champion Kjetil Jansrud by 0.45 seconds – his first victory in almost three years. Guay triumphed less than two weeks after a spectacular crash, when he flew 60 meters (yards) in the air off a jump in a treacherous World Cup downhill. “It’s incredible. I’m as happy as can be,” said Guay, putting his win down to “forgetting about everything and having a fun race.” It was a banner day for Canada after Norway seemed sure to also take bronze in an event it dominates. But late-starting Manny Osborne-Paradis edged World Cup champion Aleksander Aamodt Kilde off the podium. On his 33rd birthday, Osborne-Paradis claimed his first career championship medal, trailing Guay by 0.51. He was serenaded by a finish-area crowd, and later was hugged by his mother. Guay added super-G gold to his downhill title from the 2011 worlds in Garmisch- Partenkirchen. It was at the same German course last month that he wiped out in a twisting fall. “I was lucky to walk away with fairly minor injuries,” said Guay, competing at his seventh worlds. “I can see (the crash) on TV no problem, but in my head I can’t really remember going off the jump and having that fear.” There were more jumps to handle Wednesday on a hill that launched racers airborne, testing their balance and ability to improvise through an unfamiliar gate-setting.

  • Dominik Paris Is the King of Stelvio – First Place After “Attacking Vikings” Svindal and Jansrud
    Bormio, Dicember 17, 2017 DOMINIK PARIS IS THE KING OF STELVIO – FIRST PLACE AFTER “ATTACKING VIKINGS” SVINDAL AND JANSRUD It’s a memorable day for the “Azzurri” world. It’s a come back to victory forDominik Paris and it’s a come back that closes the seasonal lack of victories forthe Italian guys, 13 races that were becoing a heavy one. What a wonderful racethe one by the guy from Santa Valpurga, in Val d'Ultimo, which shows a great growth in condition, just almost a month from the Winter Olympics inPyeongChang. Paris already won in Bormio on December 29, 2012 together with the Austrian Hannes Reichelt, but this time the taste of victory is even more intense. Power, class, courage. They’re all components of the race by the “Azzurro”. A dive of about 3250 m. and a vertical drop of 1010 m. that left without breath. He was aggressive from the start to Praimont, amazing on the curves of Fontana Lunga and Pian dell'Orso, high line in the Carcentina passage. Paris lost balanceonly in the San Pietro long jump, but kept position with an acrobatic gesture thatprevented him from falling and losing speed before the final curves which arealways decisive. From La Konta the “Azzurro” built its triumph, and believed ituntil the last meter. He didn’t win for the mistakes of the others. The Norwegians Aksel Svindal and Kjetil Jansrud skied in an excellent way and hunted him (+0,04 for the first, +0,17for the second, but it’s nothing on a long and complex slope like Stelvio).
