A week and a half before the planned World Cup races, the Chuenisbärgli is in a worrying condition in the last section of the route.
Anyone who looks at the pictures from Adelboden can hardly imagine that World Cup races are to take place here in just over a week. The world ski association FIS, on the other hand, can already do this.
The FIS checked the snow conditions in Wengen and Adelboden on Saturday – and gave the Swiss races the go-ahead despite the precarious snow situation.
How is that possible? “It’s positive that the snow cannons are running in Adelboden and snow depots can be seen next to the piste,” said the FIS race director on Wednesday. The confidence that the Adelbodner can conjure up a raceable surface is obviously high enough.
In Adelboden on 7./8. A giant slalom and a slalom take place in January; at the Lauberhorn from 13.-15. January drove (Super-G, downhill, slalom). (SDA/sme)
