Mikaela Shiffrin and Ski Legends at the VIP Snow Queen Trophy 2015 - Behind The Scenes
Once again the Zagreb/Sljeme Organizers not only put together a fabulous race for just above the Croatian capital, but also provided plenty of entertaining side programs to entertain the numerous ski fans.
On the morning of January 4th, the ladies’ race was full of excitement as Mikaela Shiffrin claimed her second Snow Queen Crown. But as soon as the “official“ race was over, the Crveni Spust got taken over by former champions and Croatian celebrities who competed in a charity parallel slalom.
The FIS Alpine Ski World Cup is the top international circuit of Alpine Skiing competitions staged annually. It is considered the premier competition in alpine ski racing together with the quadrennial Olympic Winter Games and the biennial FIS Alpine World Ski Championships. Some experts event consider winning the World Cup to be athletically a more valuable title than winning gold at the Olympic Winter Games or the World Championships, since it requires a competitor to ski at an extremely high level in several events throughout the season, and not just in one race. Today, the FIS Alpine Ski World Cup races are held primarily at famous ski resorts in the European Alps, along with regular stops in Scandinavia, North America, and Far East Asia. Competitors attempt to score a maximum of points during the season in five events: slalom, giant slalom, super-G, downhill and super combined. The fifth event, super-combined, was introduced in 2005 and generally consists of a shorter downhill race and a one-run slalom. Sometimes the downhill is replaced by a super-G. Alpine was added to the Olympic winter schedule in 1936.
