The 1994/95 season of the Alpine Ski World Cup organized by the FIS began on November 26, 1994 in Park City (women) and on December 3 in Tignes (men) and ended on March 19, 1995 on the occasion of the World Cup final in Bormio . There were 30 races for men (9  downhill runs , 5  super-G , 7  giant slaloms , 9  slaloms ). For women there were 31 races (9 downhill runs, 7 Super-G, 8 giant slaloms, 7 slaloms). There were also two combined scores for men and one for women. For the Swiss women, who had won the Nations Cup nine times in the 1980s, there was another victory that has not been repeated so far (as of March 2019).

The World Ski Championships in the Sierra Nevada had to be postponed by a year due to lack of snow.

Season course

Before the start of the season

As a result of Ulrike Maier's death, the World Ski Association reacted in terms of safety: The rules were drastically tightened, in which the ski sidewalls were regulated and the safety precautions increased. In addition, the athletes were asked to provide appropriately prepared declarations in which they were made aware of the risks and primarily concerned with personal responsibility, including holding third parties liable for faults caused by the driver (negligently) . Great resistance came from Germany and Italy. It took several discussions and clarifications before all the men and women had signed their names (initially even signatures were made “with reservations”), because only with such a declaration were so-called “international licenses” awarded to the athletes. The deadline for signing was January 1st.

The regulation on starting numbers for the technical disciplines, according to which the first seven in the world rankings, starting with No. 1 on this list, were allowed to choose them in a "pick-up" process, has been withdrawn. From now on the numbers were drawn again, first for the "Top 7", then from 8 to 15; the further order was based on the currently valid FIS World Cup start list (WCSL) and those regulations, according to which runners with a certain number of World Cup points from number 16 could be inserted. For the 1994/95 season, all runners who were classified in the respective disciplines “Top 60” in the world rankings were eligible to start.

After the women's trainer Herwig Demschar from Graz had resigned in the face of the accident and had started a new beginning at the US ski association, the Austrian Ski Association ordered the Carinthian Raimund Berger, who had been the head coach of women until 1992 and now worked in the association's research and development department, again on this post.

Premier victories

Men's:

  • At the start of the season in the giant slalom in Tignes (December 3), Achim Vogt (start number 19!), Who competed as a great outsider, won his first and only victory.
  • Josef Strobl had already made his maiden victory on the downhill in Val-d'Isère (December 16) seem possible due to his best time in the training session the day before, but due to his high start number 61 (the second highest winner number in men's downhill runs; As of January 2019), was more in doubt. Luc Alphand had start no. 11 until then. For winner Strobl it was the first ever start in the World Cup. Such a "coup" to be immediately victorious happened again in Val-d'Isère, where so far only Gustav Thöni (December 11, 1969) and Piero Gros (December 8, 1972) had succeeded in the men's area in two giant slaloms .
  • Same with start no. 1, Kyle Rasmussen won his maiden win on the Lauberhorn run in Wengen (January 21).
  • On February 20, Mario Reiter won the Furano giant slalom for the first time.
  • Peter Runggaldier landed his first victory in the Super-G in Whistler on February 26th .
  • On March 10th, Werner Perathoner achieved his first victory in the Super-G in Kvitfjell .

Women:

Cancellations, postponements

The unexpected cancellation of the World Ski Championships on January 26th, as this resulted in a break from racing, was added to the incidents, which are already part of "normality" every year. Not only for organizational reasons on the part of the organizers, but also because of the immobility of the television stations, it was not possible to move various other races forward (even in Austria there was a rejection of the proposal for an earlier date for the national championships). At least in the men's area, however, there were two organizers of a so-called “Alpine Cup” ( broadcast live by ORF ) in Lienz for the technical competitions and Saalbach-Hinterglemm for downhill runs ; the women and sometimes various men (alternating with the alternative program offered) took part in the European Cup races.

The other cancellations and postponements began with the glacier races at the start of the season in Saas Fee, which fell victim to the storm and half a meter of fresh snow. The men's parallel slalom (it would not have been part of the individual World Cup) from 12 o'clock would have been broadcast by ORF and SRG , the women's slalom (10:30 am and 1 pm) would also have been broadcast directly by ZDF . It was also criticized that the racetrack was not even homologated. The competitions were canceled without replacement (postponement to November 7th was not possible due to the danger of avalanches). There would have been a total of around CHF 125,000 in prize money, including CHF 75,000 for the winners. However, Alberto Tomba (he had stayed in South Tyrol for training), Kjetil André Aamodt (food poisoning) and Marc Girardelli did not come to Switzerland.

General:

  • A super-G for men and women was planned for January 10th in Flachau . During those of the women with a start time of 9:30 a.m., the Renate Götschl with the extraordinary start number. 34 won with a 0.01 second advantage over Seizinger (No. 14) (with snowfall for the time being, at Götschl the sky had cleared), took place, the men (starting time 13 h) and despite waiting for an hour were canceled because of heavy snowfall.

Men's:

  • Sestriere could not carry out its races because of the lack of snow in Central Europe. Thus, the men did not start the giant slalom planned for 10 and 13 hours until December 3rd, but not in Val-d'Isère (no snow here either!), But in the neighboring town of Tignes. (The ladies had gotten started in Park City a week earlier.)
  • There were major changes for the men's program on the weekend of 10/11. December; For the time being, Tignes took over the Super-G, but this was not driven until December 11th. On December 10th, after waiting an hour and 52 minutes, it had to be canceled due to fog, and Ian Piccard was about to kick out of the starting house when he was stopped.
  • The slalom of Madonna di Campiglio on December 12th was moved to Sestriere (and held as a night slalom).
  • St. Anton could not carry out its program either; Val-d'Isère (and Kitzbühel took over the downhill run on January 13th).
  • The lack of snow also forced the cancellation of the Super-G in Bad Kleinkirchheim.
  • In Méribel, the women's slalom could be run, but not the giant slalom and the men's super-G.
  • The giant slalom in Adelboden (January 24th) had to be canceled because the slope was too soft, but the pause caused by the postponement of the World Championship made it possible to add it on February 4th, which resulted in another Tomba victory instead of the scheduled World Championship downhill run .
  • The giant slalom in Furano started on February 18, but was canceled after 23 runners due to the weather (Jure Košir led ahead of Aamodt) - but two days later it was successful. The departure scheduled for February 19 was canceled, however, because gusts of up to 70 km / h made the event impossible.
  • The descent in Aspen had to be postponed from March 4th to March 5th due to snowfall; the Super-G scheduled for that day has been moved to Kvitfjell . 68 runners were at the start of the downhill run on March 5th, after 24 runners there was poor visibility due to fog in the middle part of the route and increasing snowfall and after No. 31 it was canceled; it had AJ Kitt performed before, Armin, Kjus, Skårdal and Ghedina, Ortlieb was ranked 8th, Alphand to 14. The jury decided four to zero votes, the race to be considered (thus seemed Assinger with 418 points, ahead of Alphand with 402, Ghedina 398, Ortlieb 357 on), but the associations of France, Great Britain and Switzerland protested - and after a telephone survey by the FIS of 16 board members, ten of them spoke out against the recognition.
  • In Kvitfjell on March 11th, two departures with starting times 9:30 and 12:00 were programmed and also run. The first, however, was canceled after the fall of No. 37, the Canadian Smith Murray; it had Pietro Vitalini out before "Pepi" Strobl, Assinger, Ghedina, Kjus, Trinkl and Ortlieb, Alphand had been classified only on the 18th Place. The procedure was similar to that in Aspen days before; the jury again spoke out in favor of the valuation, shortly afterwards the FIS spoke out against it. The second Super-G planned for March 12th was canceled due to strong winds.

Women:

  • There was a downhill run in Lake Louise on December 9th, which Veysonnaz preferred. The other Veysonnaz races were canceled.
  • With regard to the races planned for Morzine, the giant slalom was held in Alta Badia, making the Gran Risa the first for women.
  • Due to 15 cm of fresh snow, the second descent in Cortina d'Ampezzo was postponed from January 21st to January 22nd, as a result of which the giant slalom planned for this day for Monday, January 23rd, was "punched through".
  • The slalom in Maribor was driven on two days; On February 26th the race had to be stopped due to rain after the first round (in the lead: Ertl ahead of Schneider and Compagnoni), the next day Ertl fell back to 5th place. ( Trude Gimmle , who started with No. 33, went from 14th to 3rd place.)
  • The downhill run in Saalbach-Hinterglemm , which was scheduled for March 4th, had to be postponed until the next day due to snowfall, so that there were two races on March 5th.

Other happenings

Men's:

  • The slalom in Sestriere (December 12th) at 6 and 8:40 pm was the first “floodlit slalom” in the World Cup, with Alberto Tomba winning with two fastest times. Floodlit slaloms themselves had already been held before, even in the 1960s, such as Bad Wiessee and Westendorf (known for the fact that the slaloms there took place two days before those on the Kitzbühel Ganslernhang and are still taking place). There were also parallel slaloms in Mauerbach near Vienna.
  • Alberto Tomba was initially the first runner in World Cup history to win two slaloms within 24 hours, later he was the one who had three slalom victories in a row, which he achieved with the success on January 8th - and he continued with two more wins en suite new records. He set another new record with victory (two fastest times) in the giant slalom in Alta Badia, because that meant three wins in three days.
  • After the first downhill run in Kitzbühel , planned for January 13th, was canceled, the next day two downhill runs with start times 10 and 12:30 hrs (the second as a “sprint run”), each won by Luc Alphand (ahead of an Austrian) In the sprint downhill, Werner Perathoner classified No. 25 and above all Alessandro Fattori No. 60 in 3rd and 4th place; and Stefan Krauss showed with start number. 44 on rank 9 is a remarkable achievement. Both times it was only started at the steep slope, which is why the victory times were 1: 40.97 and 1: 40.33.
  • The Alphand victories meant the first victory of a French in a Hahnenkamm descent since Jean-Claude Killy on January 21, 1967. Killy himself could not see these victories of his compatriot in the "Télévision française" because the French public television had no interest in the Had taken over the transfer.
  • In the 43rd edition of this Hahnenkamm race, a Super-G was held for the first time. The victory achieved by Günther Mader brought two "news": Mader was not only the first ÖSV winner on a French ski, but he personally achieved his first victory in Austria.
  • The original downhill run on January 21 in Wengen was the 250th men's downhill run in World Cup history, with the first run also being held on the Lauberhorn (January 14, 1967).
  • It was already noticeable at the end of February that the brands “Rossignol” (Tomba, Košir, Von Grünigen) and “Elan” (Sykora, Tritscher, Reiter, Furuseth, Fogdö) were dominant in the slaloms.
  • At the Super-G in Whistler (February 26), three riders with high numbers finished behind the No. 2 leading Runggaldier: Kitt with 54 on 2, Greber with 40 on 3 and Podivinsky with 61 on 4.
  • The Austrian Ski Association protested against the back protectors used by the Italians in the speed races, which, in their opinion, not only provided protection, but also brought time advantages. The protest was rejected by the FIS.
  • Richard Kröll won the Super-G at the final in Bormio (March 16), when only 24 men had started, with the last starting number, i.e. 24.

Women:

  • From the starting races overseas there was only live TV broadcasts for the German-speaking areas in Europe on “Eurosport”.
  • After almost 13 years, Sylvia Eder , who had won her maiden victory as a 16-year-old and thus to date, in March 2019, the youngest downhill winner in World Cup history, came on January 19, 1982 in Badgastein at the Super-G in Vail (December 3 ) to her second success. ( Veronika Wallinger took second place with start no.33.)
  • Anita Wachter had changed her ski brand before the season and was now driving a product from the Slovenian manufacturer Elan , but the desired results were not achieved (ranks 35 and 16 in the first two giant slaloms, her specialty); company supervisor Jure Vogelnik, who at the time had been a service man for Ingemar Stenmark , met her and made modifications. Rank 2 in the giant slalom in Alta Badia meant that the Vorarlberg woman was back in shape.
  • The double victory Street / Lindh on the downhill in Lake Louise on December 9th was the first downhill double victory in the World Cup for the women of the US Skiing Association.
  • Michaela Gerg won the first Cortina descent (January 20th) with the high starting number. 39; it was 0.02 s faster than the No. 24 street. What was special, however, was that Gerg trained separately with the DSV because of simmering differences of opinion - with her husband Christian Leitner and father-in-law Hias Leitner ( Mathias Leitner ). (There was even talk of a change of association to Austria, but these rumors were not an issue for ÖSV women's boss Raimund Berger.)
  • The women of the ÖSV did not achieve a podium finish in slalom; Fourth place twice ( Sabine Egger on December 18 in Sestriere and Anita Wachter on December 30 in Méribel) were the best results.

World Cup decisions

Men's

Overall:
Alberto Tomba's strengths in giant slalom and slalom were sufficient, and with the 1,150 points he gained, he won the "big ball" for the first and only time, which is the first time since Gustav Thöni in 1974/75 went. At the turn of the year, Tomba was in the lead with 580 points. The others in the top ten were: Aamodt 302, Von Grünigen 294, Košir 255, Tritscher 250, Mader 234, Ortlieb 230, Sykora 210, Fogdö 190 and Alphand 176. After the giant slalom in Adelboden, Tomba had 1,050 points, now Košir was Second (570), the others in the front were Girardelli (563), Mader (500) and Aamodt (480). Nevertheless, Tomba was officially the overall winner only after the final descent in Bormio, it was 1:32 pm. He (still) led with 1,050 points ahead of Košir with 700 and Girardelli with 670 - and the latter could theoretically have overtaken him, but the Luxembourg-by-choice stayed out of the points with 17th place.

Downhill:
As mostly the same runners were able to place themselves on the podium or in the closest distance, the season was exciting and the "Cup" was only decided in the last race. It even had the impression that (with the exception of the combination) all titles should go to Italy, because Kristian Ghedina had gone into the final as the leader with 433 points against Luc Alphand with 384. Opportunities also had , Armin been (383) previously (twice for cancellation once for running repeat) not exactly favored in the race by luck and had lost 140 points on the "green table", and Patrick Ortlieb had (381). Ghedina was the first of the aspirants to start, Assinger lagging behind. Ortlieb and Peter Rzehak ranked ahead of him. After that, Alphand took over the leadership and never gave it up; Ghedina was beaten by one point at this point; the fact that he fell back to 6th place in the end was no longer important. Alphand was the first French winner of the "downhill ball" since Jean-Claude Killy in 1967.

Super-G:
Günther Mader fought a long duel with Peter Runggaldier, but he didn't get the “big points” in the finish; in Kvitfjell (March 10th) he was third for a long time (the opponent was sixth), but then he was ousted by the two US runners Rasmussen and Daron Rahlves (nos. 30 and 34) and he was only 13th 20 points caught up. Since another Super-G was canceled at the same place, Runggaldier was ahead of the final by 252 to 214, so that the Tyrolean felt harmed and he slightly resigned (please see article "Cancellations, postponements"). At the final itself, in which Perathoner with No. 5 and Runggaldier with No. 6 were in the lead, Mader (No. 10) was already defeated as third at that time when he crossed the finish line.

Giant slalom:
Although not as impressive as in the slalom, Tomba's number of wins was fourth in Tignes, he did not start in Val d'Isère (December 18) for the second round and (one day after the out in the slalom) in Furano second run (after missing the 13th goal in the first run). However, it triggered a boom in viewers in the final: 600 buses and 30,000 fans had come to Bormio.

Slalom:
Tomba had an impressive series of seven victories, before he was eliminated in Furano on February 19 in the first round and in the final in Bormio (March 19) in the first round because of a goal error.

Combination: Marc Girardelli won with a maximum of 200 points without
discussion .

Women:
Overall:
For the third time in her career, Vreni Schneider, who succeeded in saying goodbye to active racing, won the overall standings. However, there was an extremely tight decision against Katja Seizinger , for whom the matter turned out to be a kind of "negative déja-vu" for the 1992/93 season, when she was inferior to Anita Wachter with 20 points (this time it was only six points! ).
For the time being, however (after Méribel) Heidi Zeller-Bähler was in first place with 485 points. The “Top Ten” also included: Vreni Schneider 466, Seizinger 393, Wiberg 345, Lindh 304, Ertl 295, Hrovat 250, Street 225, Panzanini 212, Wachter 211. After Åre , Seizinger was clearly ahead with 893 points, followed by Zeller (821) and Schneider 742; Wachter had 595 points where she stopped because of her February 22 injury.
Schneider had even decided to start on the downhill in Saalbach (which was not driven until one day later instead of March 4th - please see the article "Cancellations and postponements"), with 8th place compared to Seizinger's 27th place surprisingly made good. Subsequently, both women had not always been intoxicating.
In the Bormio final, Seizinger pulled away a little (5th place compared to 9th in the downhill, but above all Super G victory and Schneider's failure (drove past a gate in the upper part of the route); thus 1200 to 1119 lead). After the giant slalom as the penultimate race, in which neither of them were able to take top positions (Schneider rank 9, Seizinger rank 11), the DSV runner still had a clear lead with 1224 to 1148 points, although she was not a “slalom luminary” “Was true. Nevertheless, depending on whether Seizinger got into the points or not, Schneider needed a victory or a second place. For Seizinger it was clear: She had the ball in 10th place, but she was missing 49/100 s in the end. After the first run, the "Fernduell" only brought Schneider 4th place, 0.74 s behind the leading one Hrovat was placed. Exactly 5 minutes after 12 noon, as seen in the retrospective, Seizinger's dream was ultimately over, because Schneider had taken the lead. Seizinger's hope for the Hrovat leading after the first run in front of Wiberg (- 0.02 or s) had not been fulfilled.

Downhill:
Picabo Street was the first US woman to win a "little ball" in the downhill; so far rank 2 of Cindy Nelson 1977/78 was the best value in this discipline.
There was even a US double victory, with Hilary Lindh, with her two start wins and second place in the third downhill run, having led 280 to 129 points with 280 points (in between, however, was Katja Seizinger with 146 points), but then Street took over (failure at the start in Vail ) the command, while the teammate no longer reached the initial form. The fact that Street was unable to intervene in the fight for the overall World Cup was primarily due to her lack of points in the technical disciplines (and thus also the only combination); she had only competed in the giant slalom on January 8th in Haus im Ennstal and on January 22nd in Cortina d'Ampezzo , where she had not been able to qualify for the 2nd run, but her moderate performance in the super Gs responsible for this unfortunate circumstance.

(Previous US ball winners were:
Tamara McKinney as overall winner 1982/83 and discipline winner giant slalom 1980/81 and slalom 1983/84 - as well as Marylin Cochran giant slalom 1968/69.)

Super-G:
As in the previous year, Katja Seizinger was the dominant lady.

Giant slalom:
Vreni Schneider won the trophy for the fifth time. After Åre, however, Zeller was still ahead of Schneider with 410 points with 21 points, Wachter appeared in third place with 295 points.

Slalom:
For the sixth time, of which in an uninterrupted series since 1991/92, Vreni Schneider was again (clearly) successful, with four wins and two second places scoring 560, while the competitors could not keep up in any way.

Combination:
There was only one rating, which is why analyzes are not necessary.

Financial

When it came to the prize money, Alberto Tomba was clearly ahead of the game: he won CHF 320,500, while Luc Alphand received CHF 125,000, Armin Assinger CHF 96,500 and Marc Girardelli CHF 75,000. In the women's category, Vreni Schneider was the front runner with around CHF 150,000, ahead of Picabo Street (93,700), Heidi Zeller-Bähler (86,100), Katja Seizinger (58,000) and Anita Wachter (CHF 55,000).

Injuries

Men's:

  • On the so-called second descent in Kvitfjell (March 11th), Pietro Vitalini, of all people, who was in the lead in the first descent when the abortion was held, fell badly and suffered a collateral ligament tear and a concussion. Armin Assinger, who started after him with No. 4 and was in good shape, was waved off with the yellow flag by FIS race director Sepp Messner; Assinger was allowed to compete again later and came in 5th (see also the article "Cancellations and postponements".)

Women:

  • The descent in Vail (December 2) caused injuries for three runners: Mélanie Suchet and the Slovenian Nives Sitar suffered cruciate ligament tears, Anja Haas got away with a torn ligament in a fall after 50 seconds of driving, which required a six-week break . The heel of the binding on the right ski had been torn.
  • Veronika Stallmaier landed in the Super-G on January 7th in Haus im Ennstal at the finish line in the network; she was born on January 8th at the University Hospital Innsbruck by Dr. Wulf Glötzer operates. A tear in the posterior cruciate ligament and cartilage damage in the right knee and a shoulder injury were found.
  • Pernilla Wiberg was unable to compete in the giant slalom in Åre (February 18) because she cut her knee when she fell with the edge of the ski; the wound was sewn with six stitches.
  • On February 22nd, Anita Wachter suffered a tear in the collateral ligament in her left ankle during slalom training in St. Michael near Obdach (Styria); on the same evening, Dr. Schenk found a torn ligament in his left ankle joint in Schruns - Wachter had already suffered a collateral ligament tear in his left knee (on March 4, 1992 in a parallel slalom in Vail ).
  • In the final Super-G, Shannon Nobis sustained a knee injury in a fall and Picabo Street had to be transported by helicopter after a "big headache".

End of career

  • The most prominent resignation was that of Vreni Schneider , who had just won the overall World Cup for the third time. Annelise Coberger , who had set up her domicile in St. Anton am Arlberg over the winter, announced - after twelve years in the World Cup - that she was going to end her career on March 1st. Also Chantal Bournissen (she had this announced on March 12), Astrid Lødemel , EVA TWARDOKENS and Peter Roth , , Armin completed end of the season the same step.
  • There was an unforeseen end of career for the Swedish slalom runner Thomas Fogdö on February 7th, when he drove into a tree and remained paraplegic during training in Åre , actually only driving from the lift to the training course.

Race outside the World Cup

There would also have been an "Alpine Cup" in the ladies' area. zw in Cortina d'Ampezzo, but the Italian national television RAI was not prepared to give the organizer financial support.

  • The men who did not compete for Tomba started on February 11th with a giant slalom on the "H 2000" under the title "FIS Milka Alpencup" in Lienz, which Aamodt ranked 3rd ahead of Salzgeber and the ex aequo Košir and Nyberg was won. Košir won the slalom on February 12th ahead of Tritscher and Stangassinger. The prize money was also well endowed with a total of 500,000 schillings per day (200,000 schillings for the victory and 5,000 schillings for rank ten).
  • While the technicians had already arrived in Furano for the World Cup, the downhill skiers were training in Saalbach. At first it was said that the SSV drivers would be missing, but then their aces were there. There were two sprint descents on February 17th, where Perathoner won first before Ortlieb and Assinger, then Assinger before Perathoner; On February 18, the race had to be stopped after 20 runners (Vitalini in the lead ahead of Assinger and Perathoner) due to poor visibility for safety reasons.
  • The Austrian Ski Championships started one day late in Ellmau on March 22nd.
