Silver pitcher race
The silver jug races were international alpine ski races in Bad Gastein in the Austrian state of Salzburg , which were held as FIS-IA races from 1961 and as the women's World Cup races from 1968 to 1988 .
After the construction of a chair lift and the planning of an FIS route on the Graukogel , the first silver jug race of the Bad Gastein Ski Club was held in 1951. At the premiere, a giant slalom was held for women and men, which Lotte Blattl and Ernst Oberaigner won. The name of the race is derived from the Bad Gastein coat of arms, a silver jug. After the silver jug races for women and men were held in various disciplines and the 1958 World Championship was held , efforts began in Bad Gastein to position the silver jug races as Austria's FIS-IA women’s race, while the men were no longer to start there. After successful negotiations, the 5th International Silver Jug Races were held for the first time in 1961 as the FIS-IA race, the highest racing class at the time. Before that, Austria's FIS A women's races were the competitions of the Hahnenkamm races in Kitzbühel , which were held in 1961 as the FIS B races and fell victim to a change in the international racing calendar in 1962.
From 1962 the silver jug races were held every two years, alternating with the gold key races in the Montafon . In 1961 and 1962 there were still races in all disciplines ( downhill , giant slalom, slalom and combined ), from 1964 the giant slalom was no longer held and the combined scoring for the silver jug changed from a three to a two combination (downhill / slalom). In 1968, the Bad Gastein women's races were held for the first time as part of the World Cup , which was introduced a year earlier , although initially the combined ranking was not part of the World Cup. After the Montafon gold key races ended in 1983, the silver jug races continued to be held every two years until the Gastein races were held for the last time in 1988. A total of eleven women's World Cup races were held in Bad Gastein from 1968 to 1988. During this time, Hanni Wenzel from Liechtenstein was the most successful participant. From 1980 to 1984 she won four World Cup races and in 1978 the combination that was not part of the World Cup. Since the end of the Silberkrugrennen there have been no major alpine ski races in Bad Gastein, but since 2001 the Snowboard World Cup has been a guest in the Salzburg town.
