Welcome and Opening of the Meeting The Chairman, Bernhard Russi (SUI), welcomed all present to the 87th meeting of the FIS Alpine Committee in Zürich (SUI) and extended his welcome to Gian Franco Kasper, FIS President, to Sarah Lewis General Secretary, to all Committee and Sub- Committee members and to the guests present. 2. Roll Call Janez Fleré (FIS) conducted the roll call. Apologies were received from Claus Ryste (NOR), Vedran Pavlek (CRO), Gregor Benedik (SLO), Daniela Merighetti (ITA) and Hannes Reichelt (AUT) members of the Executive Board; Herbert Mandl (AUT), Chairman of the European Cup, Ernesto Cingolani (ARG), Chairman of the South American Cup and David Howden (NZL), Chairman of the Australian New Zealand Cup. 3. Approval of the Agenda The Agenda, without additions or remarks, was unanimously approved. 4. Approval of the Minutes The Minutes of the 86th Meeting held in May 2018 in Costa Navarino (GRE) were, without comments or remarks, unanimously approved. 5. Reports 5.1 Chairman (Bernhard Russi, SUI) The Chairman noted that despite it being the end of summer, winter was still running in the Southern Hemisphere. The season started already in Southern Hemisphere with a large program of competitions with a total of 54 competitions held in Australia and New Zealand and 85 in Chile and Argentina. For all professionals and the Sub-Committee Chairmen the summer brought many inspections of World Cup events and the homologation of courses. The Final Inspection of Are (SWE), for the coming 2019 Alpine World Championships is due shortly. In Beijing (CHN) the on-going process is advancing at incredible speed, the achievements there are impressive. The FIS Congress (held in spring) approved the introduction of the Individual Parallel Event with the first event to be at the 2021 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships Cortina (ITA). A Working Group, chaired by Ken Read, was established in order to draw up the rules and systems required to run this event. The Chairman was pleased to note that some 80% of the business necessary has been completed, a tremendous workload. By February the final report should be ready for delivery to the Executive Board for approval. The Chairman thanked everyone for their work during the last, busy four days. Minutes FIS Committee for Alpine Skiing, Zürich (SUI), 28.09.2018 - 5 - 6. Executive Board (Bernhard Russi, SUI) The Executive Board held two, not three, meetings as the World Cup Sub-Committee was extremely well prepared having no questions or issues. The main topic was the Parallel Event with its rules and harmonisation. There were long discussions ending with a lot of ideas to work on during the next four months by which time the final proposal is due. In addition the Executive Board has decided to replace the Alpine Combined with the individual Parallel Events in the future planning of World Championships, World Cup and Olympic Winter Games. 7. Evaluation 7.1 Timing Working Group (Daniel Defago, FIS) The Timing device Summit Systems SRT 1000 has expired and the homologation list will be updated shortly. Some adjustments have been made to Start-door measurements to fit all FIS disciplines. The Timing Booklet (Alpine) is now updated and 1st release Cross-Country and Freestyle are ready. 7.2 Classification of Alpine Competitors (Jeff Weinman, USA) The Sub-Committee work surrounded approving special quotas for the Northern Hemisphere and addressing impact of parallel events on the overall classification. The following proposal were supported unanimously to forward to the Alpine Committee: Limit of parallel competitions 4.4.10 FIS points for the Qualification Run FIS points will be calculated for the European Cup KO and Parallel qualification run. No FIS points will be awarded to those qualified competitors who did not start the Parallel competition. - Each National Ski Association may calendar the following number of parallel competitions: - One competition per gender in National Championships and National Junior Championships categories - No more than two competitions per gender in each FIS category No limit on the number of competitions in ENL category The Alpine Committee supported the proposal 8. Ladies´Alpine Skiing (Karen Korfanta, USA) The Sub-Committee sought to identify which National Ski Associations were establishing Safe Policies in order to protect athletes in the sport. The Race Directors present reported on the coming 18/19 season. The initiative on gender equality was discussed, particularly on how this will be viewed in the future. It hopes to start an active initiative in engaging in this matter in order that change comes about. Finally the member for Germany, Traudl Munch was retiring and received the grateful thanks from the Sub-Committee members for all her support over the years. Minutes FIS Committee for Alpine Skiing, Zürich (SUI), 28.09.2018 - 6 - 9. Alpine Courses (Elena Gaja, ITA) The Sub-Committee heard reports from the Race Directors present that were interesting and much appreciated. The summer had been a busy period with 46 new certificates being issued. Currently there are 330 open missions to be completed during the coming two months. In spring the revision of the rules was completed and the Sub-Committee is now focussing on its next project, the on-line version of Homologation documents and Inspection Reports. The Chair was extremely grateful for the support of the IT department. There was some discussion on a common expiry date in order to give Organisers and National Ski Associations more time to react. This matter will be tabled at the spring meeting. The Chair noted that there was a major project in the coming year, that of the homologation of the Beijing (CHN) courses. The time to carry this out would be during the Final Inspection for the World Cup when 80-90% of the work was completed.

  • Patrick Lang's Column NEWCOMERS DOMINATE FIRST WOMEN
    Patrick Lang’s Column 19th January 2020 NEWCOMERS DOMINATE FIRST WOMEN PARALLEL GIANT SLALOM AT SESTRIERE. A numerous and happy crowd enjoyed another day of exciting ski racing at Sestriere this Sunday in occasion of the maiden giant slalom parallel race organized on the final part of the sunbathed G. Agnelli course. After a series of intense one-to-one battles France’s Clara Direz prevailed in the last final beating little-known Austrian Elisa Moerzinger while Marta Bassino was 3rd after beating her teammate Federica Brignone, one of the two winners in Saturday’s race. After a round of qualification hold in the early morning, 32 competitors fought for points and honor on the short course which turned out to be tougher than expected for some of the favorites as Slovakia’s Petra Vlhova or USA’s Mikaela Shiffrin, both on the podium in Saturday’s giant slalom race. They of them didn’t survive the first rounds allowing Italy’s giant slalom team to celebrate another nice result with three of them ending among the top-5 as Sofia Goggia came in 5th. Clara Direz, who celebrated her first top-10 finish last month at Lienz, eliminated Shiffrin in the 2nd round while Vlhova lost in her first round by 0,05 seconds to Switzerland Aline Danioth who unfortunately suffered a bad crash in her following round. Alice Robinson from New Zealand also fell in the first round of 32 as well as Germany’s Viktoria Rebensburg. The 25-year-old French racer, who has been racing since seven years on the World Cup tour, was able to score points in three different giant slalom races this season including on Saturday when she was 13th here.

It draws on social movement and organisational theory, and on interview data, to examine how and why the localisation agenda emerged when it did. Overall, the study suggests that the intersection of SMT and OT represents a productive lens to study change in the humanitarian system, giving substantial purchase on the question of how the localisation agenda emerged, and how it shifted through its interaction with established institutional structures.

  • 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.
