In the 3 Peaks Dolomite region everything is ready

The ski cross entourage is currently stopping in Arosa, Switzerland. As in previous years, this is the last stage before the “classics” in Innichen, which will take place at Haunold for the 12th time. In the heart of the Dolomites everything is prepared for a sporting fireworks display in the run-up to Christmas. Above all, the snow conditions are optimal and the work on the approximately 1200 meter long slope, which is one of the longest and most demanding in the entire World Cup circuit, is almost complete. As in previous years, the ski crossers on Haunold are expecting some route changes this year. Because the start sequence, the middle part and also the finish jump were designed differently by the organizers. The organizers from WSV Innichen are convinced that this will add even more thrill to the already exciting races. It starts on Friday, December 17th with the first training sessions before the qualification takes place on Saturday. Sunday, December 19th and Monday, 20th December are the racing days and therefore the undisputed highlight of the major sporting event. Fans can also take part in the spectacle A major event where fans can also be there up close and get excited. All World Cup classics that are taking place in South Tyrol this year can be held in front of an audience. Around 75 percent of the maximum spectator capacity will be admitted provided that the fans have the Super Green Pass (vaccinated against the coronavirus or have recovered from it). In addition, there is a strict mask requirement and a ban on the consumption of drinks and food throughout the entire spectator area. “It was a very intense few weeks. But now we are ready. The anticipation for the World Cup and the best ski crossers is of course huge. The fact that we can welcome fans is of course the icing on the cake, because they create a great atmosphere,” says Gabriel Fauster from the organizing WSV Innichen. There is also great interest among television viewers in the “Formula 1 of skiing”. This is also supported by the high TV numbers that the Ski Cross World Cup broadcasts produce year after year - especially in the Scandinavian countries, but also in Switzerland and France. Of course, there are also several TV teams on site in San Candido. The leader is missing Experience has shown that the athletes of the Italian national team rush around the race track in San Candido with particular motivation. However, one top athlete will be missing, namely “Captain” Siegmar Klotz. The veteran from Pawigl near Lana is still recovering from a stubborn pelvic fracture that he suffered at the World Cup in Arosa almost exactly a year ago. But Simone Deromedis is in particularly good shape and made people sit up and take notice with third place in Val Thorens and fifth place in Arosa. Maybe the 21-year-old from Trentino will achieve the first podium for an “Azzurro” in the 3 Peaks Dolomite region.
