  • POURQUOI ? Tout Ce Que Vous N'avez Jamais Osé Ou Pensé
    POURQUOI ? Tout ce que vous n’avez jamais osé ou pensé demander sur le ski alpin Beaucoup de questions inédites sur le ski alpin que l’on n’ose ou qu’on ne pense pas poser. Pourquoi le ski de piste s’appelle-t-il ski alpin ? La pratique ancestrale du ski est liée avant tout à des raisons fonctionnelles. En effet, dans les contrées enneigées de Scandinavie, le ski de fond permettait aux hommes de se déplacer efficacement. Ce n’est qu’au milieu du XIXe siècle que ce type de pratique laissa place à l’aspect sportif, avec la mise en pace des premières compétitions de « ski nordique » en Norvège (1843). Le « ski alpin », dérivé du ski nordique, connut quant à lui une naissance plus tardive. Les historiens considèrent en effet que c’est en 1911, lors d’une compétition organisée par l’Anglais Sir Arnold Lunn à Montana en Suisse, que le ski alpin est véritablement né. Il n’y a alors qu’un pas à franchir pour associer le terme de ski « alpin » à cette compétition disputée dans le massif des Alpes bernoises ; même si le terme de « ski » reste à cette époque réservé au ski nordique. Il faudra d’ailleurs attendre 1931 pour assister aux premiers championnats du monde de ski alpin et 1936 pour son entrée aux Jeux olympiques d’hiver. Pourquoi l’une des premières épreuves disputées dans l’histoire du ski s’est-elle appelée « slalom » ? L’origine scandinave du ski a naturellement impacté le vocabulaire utilisé dans cette activité. C’est ainsi qu’une des premières épreuves de ski, disputé en 1922 à Mürren, un petit village suisse de l’Oberland bernois, fut dénommée « slalom ».
