history
The idea for a World Cup in Germany came from the person in charge of the DSV and member of the Telemark Committee of the FIS Christian Leicht. Christian Leicht applied with Bad Hindelang / Oberjoch to host the 2005 season and was awarded the contract. Because Oberjoch had a lot of experience with other events in the past. In the years 2006, 2008 to 2010 and 2012 to 2014 there was no World Cup in Bad Hindelang / Oberjoch because the World Cup costs a lot of money and this money has to be collected. Apart from Christian Leicht, nobody could add anything to it and that is why he did not want to hold a World Cup in Germany every year. In the 2016/17 season, the classic sprint discipline was swapped for a parallel sprint on the first day. Because of Storm Sabine , the races in the classic sprint and parallel sprint for women and men had to be canceled in the 2019/20 season. Because the previously groomed race track was in bad shape after the storm to host races.
