3 days of great competition at the FIS Rollerski World Cup – OROSLAVJE, Croatia

2009-07-06T00:45:00.001-07:00

STUBICKE TOPLICE, Friday, July 3.

On 7 km long course from Stubicke Toplice (Pila) to Sljeme started first race of this years FIS Rollerski World Cup. Hosts from Ski club Oroslavje were very pleased with fact that their „homeboy“ Filip Kontak won a junior man race. On second place were Alexander Krivolapov (Russia), and third were Stefano Paganessi (Italy).

In junior women category winner was Lada Strukova (Russia) in front of Cynthia Wiegand (Germany) and Nastja Gradisar (Slovenia).

In senior men category Alfio Di Gregorio (Italy) booked one of his many victories. Second and third were also members of Italian team, Simone Paredi and Sergio Bonaldi.

In senior women category, very impressive win for Hanna Seppas (Sweden) in front of Elena Rodina (Russia) and Erika Bettineschi (Italy).

Day 2, STUBICKE TOPLICE, Saturday, July 4.

On second day of FIS Rollerski World Cup on schedule was mass start race on the Oroslavje’streets. On 2 km long course in the town centre we had 69 competitors in four categories. On a so hot day, as today was, competing is not easy. But, we only had one competitor who gave up.

First on a course were junior and senior women on 20 km long race. In junior women category Cynthia Wiegand (Germany) has won, followed by Lada Strukova (Russia) and Angelica Tagliati (Italy).

In senior women category the winner was Ana Lazareva (Russia) in front of Elena Ektova (Russia) and Anna Marie Straub (Italy).

Junior men race was very tied, because all competitors were in one group from start to finish. At the end the victory goes to Italy to Gianluca Lorenzini. Second was Viktor Karasev (Russia), and third his compatriot Maxim Giniyatov.

The senior men race was game of tactics. Lots of leaders, two tries of escape, and at the end tied finish. The best in final sprint was Igor Glushkov (Russia) in front of Emanuele Sbabo (Italy) and Vladimir Fedulov (Russia).

Day 3 / Sunday, July 5.

The last day of FIS Rollerski World Cup we had sprint race. On the well known race course in the town centre we had nice competition.

Winner of the sprint race in junior women category was Nina Broznic from Croatia. She beat in the final Angelica Taglicati from Italy. Third was Nina Willert (Germany).

In junior men category victory is going to Russia. The fastest on the track was Ivan Trofimov. He beat Florian Hävermayer (Germany). Third was Aleksander Krivolapov (Russia).

The fastest senior lady was once more time Mateja Bogatec from Italy. She was faster than Inna Zaytseva from Russia in the final. Third place goes to Elana Rodina (Russia).

In the competitive senior men category, winner was Emanuele Sbabo (Italy). He beat in the final Ragnar Bjorgvin Andresen (Norway). Third place went to Fatih Yuksel (Turkey).

The next stage of the FIS World Cup will be now in Germany on July the 17^th in Markleeberg

Rollerski World Cup 2009, the last one ?

2009-07-01T01:20:00.000-07:00

Saturday July, the 3rd will start the new World Cup season 2009 in Oroslavje, Croatia.

With normally 7 stages, but due to the crises and the lake of motivation and cooperation at the FIS level, we will finally have only 4 stages and the World Championship at Piglio, Italy in September.

Rollerski wants to play as his big brother but without the budget and organisation.
In one country, Italy, rollerski is really a discipline with a federation, a budget, a team, but if we look carefully worldwide, rollerski remains a training sport…

It’s a pity, in the 3 ultimate’s World Champions we were having Giorgio Di Centa 2007, Vincent Vittoz 2003 and Jan Jacob Verdenius 2000, all of them are/were competing at the top level in winter, Di Centa is Olympian, Vittoz won the World Championship pursuit in 2003 after is title in rollerski and the Norwegian Verdenius was the first XC Sprint World Cup winner ever!

So in winter media and sponsors are focused on them and in summer, they look like poor amateurs evoluting on an amateur circuit…

Maybe we should start to think that the image of cross country skiing does not exist only in winter…

Aure and Kristiansund in Norway will host the World Championship in 2011, maybe that Norway, the leading country will understand importance of the discipline for the development of xc-ski…

But it seems that Croatia with live coverage via National TV of the ultimate World Championship, Italy with Di Centa and national team members always present on the main events and on the World Cup stages to promote themselves or France with Vittoz and the national circuit Rollerski Tour or Macadam’ski understood it 15 years ago…

Anyway a news season will start and we will see if we get communication and PR in feedback…

But, I guess that future of rollerski should find is own way, with a short circuit of 3, 4 shows/stages more like biathlon rollerski cup with extreme simple rules and friendly TV formats still inside FIS but with a new leader helped by an ambitious team.

COUPE DU MONDE FIS ROLLERSKI

Samedi, doublé franc-comtois Manu JONNIER et Alex ROUSSELET marquent leur territoire !

Les skieurs jurassiens dans leur jardin !

Les Italiens annoncés favoris et venus en nombre sur cette 6^e Trans’Roller n’ont pas réussi à réitérer leurs exploits de cet hiver sur la Transjurassienne. Les franc-comtois étaient alors absents, occupés à rafler des médailles à Turin. Aujourd’hui, chez eux, ils ont repris les rênes !

Emmanuel JONNIER, le jurassien et Alexandre ROUSSELET, le doubiste montent sur les deux premières marches du podium, devant le grand favori, l’italien Alfio DI GREGORIO, actuellement leader de la Coupe du Monde, grand spécialiste du rollerski.

Champions du monde et de France de rollerski, médaillés olympiques… autant dire que le niveau était élevé.

En tête durant la moitié de la course, l’italien DI GREGORIO se fait doubler au 4^ekilomètre par Emmanuel JONNIER, 4^e au relais à Turin… très vite suivi par Alexandre ROUSSELET qui passe 2^e. L’italien n’arrivera pas à remonter et termine 3^e, suivi par Vincent DEFRASNE, 4^e revenu très fort sur les 500 derniers mètres. On est passé à quelques centièmes d’un podium franc-comtois.

Chez les femmes, on attendait la Suissesse Laurence ROCHAT sur la première marche, elle termine finalement 2^e, juste derrière la française Coraline HUGUES (Hautes Alpes). Aurore CUINET la skieuse des Rousses se place 3^e. Florence BAVEREL aurait peut-être fait partie du trio de tête, mais n’a malheureusement pas pris le départ.

Le public généreux, venu en grand nombre (1500 personnes), a été remercié par tous les athlètes, agréablement surpris de voir autant de monde tout au long de la montée du Larmont.

Principaux résultats Hommes :

1 Emmanuel JONNIER (FRA) 00:19:14

DIMANCHE 17 SEPTEMBRE 2006

UNE COUPE PLEINE D’EAU !

ROLLERSKI 34 KM

Après la grande euphorie d’hier, nos franc-comtois étaient annoncés grands favoris, mais apparemment les Italiens en avaient décidés autrement aujourd’hui entre Pontarlier et Mouthe prêts à reprendre le dessus… Pas de chance, pour Alexandre ROUSSELET qui après quelques kilomètres casse un ski et est contraint d’abandonner. Quant à Emmanuel JONNIER, celui-ci chutera à quelques kilomètres de l’arrivée.

Les Italiens piégés par Glushkov !

La Forza Italia venue en nombre croyait dominer la course. Jusqu’au sommet du Brey c’était bien le cas, suite à un forcing de Manu JONNIER, entraînant un groupe de 3 Italiens, les favoris. Mais ceux-ci au lieu de continuer sur cette offensive et de s’expliquer au sprint sur Mouthe, ont laissé le français mener. Devant le peu de collaboration des Italiens, notre Jurassien a laissé tomber, juste avant de chuter. Du coup, tous se sont fait surprendre par le Russe qui franchit la ligne d’arrivée en tête et boucle cette Trans’roller Coupe du Monde FIS en 1H04 et 33 s.

Principaux résultats Rollerski 34 km Hommes : N°1 Igor GLUSHKOV (RUS) 01:04:33 ; N°2 Glauco PIZZUTTO (ITA) 01:04:35 ; N°3 Alfio DI GREGORIO (ITA) 01:04:35 ; N°4 Igor CUNY (FRA) 01:04:35 ; N°5 Nicolas PERRIER (FRA) 01:04:36 ; N°6 Nicolay BOLSHAKOV (RUS)) 01:04:36 ; N°7 Simone PAREDI (ITA) 01:04:36 ; N°8 Valerio THEODULE (ITA) 01:04:37 ; N°9 Jules PESSION (ITA) 01:04:37 ; N°10 Martin GILLESEN (GER) 01:04:39

Un podium féminin multi drapeaux

Une course sans surprise, les filles sont bien restées groupées jusqu’à la fin, avec une décantation régulière et progressive à partir de Mouthe. La suissesse Laurence ROCHAT, favorite termine première devant l’italienne Viviana DRUIDI et la russe Valentina KISLUKHINA.

Principaux résultats Rollerski 34 km Dames : N°1 Laurence ROCHAT (SUI) 01:13:19 ; N°2 Viviana DRUIDI (ITA) 01:13:55 ; N°3 Valentina KISLUKHINA (RUS) 01:15:23 ; N°4 Solange CHABLOZ (ITA) 01:15:29 ; N°5 Anna ROSA (ITA) 01:15:31 ; N°6 Mateja BOGATEC (RUS) 01:15:33 ; N°7 Gaetane PERRET (FRA) 01:15:34 ; N°8 Elena EKTOVA (RUS) 01:17:00 ; N°9 Elena NENYUKOVA (RUS) 01:17:00 ; N°10 Lucy PICHARD (FRA) 01:17:17

En Russie, le rollerski vient de gagner de nouvelles lettres de noblesse.

2006-08-10T05:55:00.000-07:00

En Russie, le rollerski vient de gagner de nouvelles lettres de noblesse.

Depuis les années 1990, le développement du Rollerski a connu des étapes décisives qui ont marqué la mémoire collective comme la première coupe du monde FIS en 1994 ou les premiers Championnats du Monde FIS à Rotterdam en 2000.

La Coupe du monde FIS qui c’est déroulé du 4 au 6 août à Yaroslavl en Russie, fera partie de ces événements. Elle a apporté la démonstration que la discipline ne se cantonne pas à la seule Europe Occidentale et déborde avec succès vers de nouvelles terres de conquête : treize nations ont répondu à l’appel et on a vu avec plaisir s’étoffer le peloton des juniors, et des féminines, devant des milliers de spectateurs enthousiastes.

C’est dans ce contexte d’une discipline en plein essor international que doit être appréciée la remarquable performance du Vosgien Igor Cuny, 2^e en sprint, derrière le champion du monde Igor Glushkov. En course d’équipes le même Cuny était associé à Nicolas Perrier pour la conquête d’une belle 6^e place.

La reconnaissance internationale de la discipline à été également illustrée par l’implication fédérale et institutionnelle sur l’événement.

Le président de la Fédération Russe de Ski, également vice-président du Comité Olympique, est venu spécialement de Moscou pour assister aux épreuves pendant deux jours. Le maire de Yaroslavl (800 000 habitants !), le député et le président de région ont assisté aux épreuves et participé aux manifestations protocolaires. Et le samedi soir, tous les concurrents et les officiels se sont retrouvés autour d’un buffet somptueux pour une soirée mémorable.

La couverture médiatique n’a pas été en reste : sept chaines de télévision ont suivi l’événement dont plusieurs chaines nationales.

Prochaine étape de la Coupe du Monde : les 16 et 17 septembre dans le Jura et la Franche Comté pour la finale sur la Trans’Roller (Transjurassienne d’été) qui sera l’apothéose de la saison.

Sur le circuit français de l’Odlo Rollerski Tour, les athlètes ont rendez vous les 15 et 16 août au Grand Bornand le village de Roddy Darragon, premier médaillé olympique français en ski de fond, qui sera au départ avec ces collègues des Equipes de France.

FIS Roller Skiing World Cup kicks off

2006-06-30T05:57:00.000-07:00

FIS Roller Skiing World Cup kicks off

June 28th, 2006 - The 2006 FIS Roller Skiing World Cup kicked off in Croatia on 23rd- 25th June. Taking place in Oroslavje, the first of the four World Cup weekends included an uphill mass-start race in Bistra, a World Cup premiering team sprint race, and an individual sprint race. The tough uphill race in classical style counted almost 60 competitors representing eight countries. In the team sprint race in the free technique, held on a two-kilometer loop circling around the center of Oroslavje, the two-member teams from Italy and Germany left all the others behind in all the various categories. The final sprint race was staged on a 180 meter-track in a very hot weather on Sunday.

This weekend, on 1st – 2nd July, the FIS Roller Skiing World Cup will move to Presolana (ITA), near Bergamo. The schedule there will include two uphill races (one in each technique) and a night-sprint.

The third stage of the World Cup will take place in Yaroslavl (RUS) on 5th-6th August, also awarding the European Championships. This year's World Cup season will end with the Transjurassienne (FRA) on 16 – 17th September, a mass start race mimicking the world-famous cross-country competition held there each winter.

BERGAMO SECOND STAGE

2006-06-30T05:13:00.000-07:00

Domani e domenica i migliori interpreti dello skiroll internazionale nei paesi dell'Unione dei Comuni della Presolana per un evento a dir poco mondiale. E c'è spazio anche per gli amatori

Bergamo 30 giugno 2006 Dopo l'avvio del calendario internazionale dello skiroll con le gare a Oroslavje (Croazia) di settimana scorsa, domani tocca a Bergamo ospitare la Coppa del Mondo. Il comitato organizzatore gestito da Promoeventi Sport ha approntato ogni cosa per accogliere le cento persone accreditate, tra atleti e tecnici accompagnatori, che animeranno il weekend ai piedi della Presolana. Generosa la rappresentanza delle nazioni, che oltre al tricolore italiano vedono sventolare le bandiere di Russia, Germania, Francia, Svezia, Olanda e Turchia.

Il programma di gare prevede domani mattina l'apertura con la prova in salita di 8,100 chilometri: partenza in linea da Dorga e arrivo ai 1.490 metri di quota del Monte Pora. Il dislivello del percorso è di 520 metri con tratti che superano il 10% di pendenza e si dovrà percorrere in tecnica classica. Nel pomeriggio gli atleti si sposteranno a Rovetta per la spettacolare prova sprint di 200 metri circa che avrà il traguardo nel comune di Fino del Monte: la formula di gara prevede il tabellone stile tennistico e scontri con eliminazione diretta in caso di sconfitta. La terza e ultima gara che assegnerà punti nel ranking mondiale e' fissata per domenica mattina con la prova in linea lungo i 6.4 chilometri che separano Cerete Basso da Onore: poco più di 200 metri il dislivello di gara che verranno percorsi in tecnica libera.

Partiranno con il pettorale giallo di leader provvisorio Alfio Di Gregorio tra gli uomini (126 punti), mentre tra le donne il numero 1 dovrà essere condiviso dalle azzurre Mateja Bogatec e Viviana Druidi, che in Croazia hanno fatto entrambe un primo e un settimo posto, per un totale di 136 punti. Ancora un italiano nella categoria Junior con il predominio dei fratelli Pizzuto: Glaudo in testa con 160 punti seguito da Folco con 145. Unica leadership non azzurra è tra le junior donne dove la Germania occupa le prime posizioni e con Julia Kockritz la testa della graduatoria (180 punti).

Sullo stesso percorso di domenica si disputerà anche il prima edizione del Presolana Skiroll Day, gara amatoriale aperta a tutti, master e dame, purché in possesso di tessera FISI o FIHP, ovvero delle due federazioni che gestiscono lo skiroll (la prima sul fronte internazionale in quanto il rollerski è sport in seno alla FIS mentre la seconda lo gestisce in Italia). Al via della gara amatoriale anche Fabio Maj, uno che gli skiroll li ha usati in allenamento per conquistare il palcoscenico mondiale dello sci di fondo.

Soddisfazione e tanto lavoro per il gruppo di lavoro di Promoeventi Sport guidato da Giovanni Bettineschi: Questo è il nostro terzo intervento nel 2006, dopo la Carving Cup di febbraio e gli europei di winter triathlon a marzo, ora passiamo alla Coppa del Mondo di skiroll in vista dei mondiali di specialità del prossimo anno.

Infatti la FIS ha confermato l'assegnazione della rassegna iridata a Bergamo che la realizzerà a cavallo tra agosto e settembre del 2007. E' un grosso impegno organizzativo ha sottolineato Bettineschi ma che trova soddisfazioni oltre che nelle qualità tecniche di veri campioni anche nella ricaduta mediatica dell'evento. Infatti ricchi e abbondanti servizi televisivi sono previsti sulle principali emittenti nazionali (per esempio Rai Sport Sat, La7 Sport e Sky Sport) per una disciplina che deve ancora riscuotere un grande successo di praticanti, ma che vanta un alto tasso di spettacolarità.

Infine è doveroso un ringraziamento a tutti gli enti pubblici e alle aziende private che hanno creduto in noi conclude Bettineschi a partire dall'Unione dei Comuni della Presolana e dalla Provincia di Bergamo con la Regione Lombardia, fino ai privati, tra i quali Elvas, Acerbis, Sport Specialist, Agripromo, stazione sciistica Monte Pora.

Un ultimo grazie deve essere indirizzato ai numerosi volontari (oltre 70) di vari sodalizi sportivi della zona (Sci Club Colere e Sci Club Rovetta) e non (Sci Club Lissone) senza i quali nulla sarebbe possibile.

ANCHE FABIO MAJ ALLA COPPA DI SKIROLL DELLA PRESOLANA
Domenica 2 luglio l'ex fondista al via della gara promozionale che l'organizzazione Promoeventi Sport ha collocato come side event della Coppa del Mondo F.I.S. di Skiroll.

comunicato stampa

Bergamo 26 giugno 2006 E' scattato il conto alla rovescia che nell'arco di 6 giorni ci porterà alla Coppa del Mondo F.I.S. di Skiroll della Presolana, i alta Val Seriana, secondo appuntamento della Coppa del Mondo della disciplina.
Gli organizzatori della Promoeventi Sport, con la stretta collaborazione tecnica dello Sci Club Lissone e del supporto di sodalizi locali quali gli Sci Club di Colere e Rovetta, hanno deciso di introdurre oltre alle competizioni che assegneranno i punti nel ranking mondiale di skiroll, anche una gara a carattere promozionale, allo scopo di consentire ai numerosi fondisti a riposo durante la stagione estiva, di cimentarsi in una prova non particolarmente impegnativa.
Infatti per tutti gli amatori, purché in possesso di una tessera FISI o FIHP, prenderà il via alle 10,30 di domenica 2 luglio la prima edizione del Presolana Skiroll Day, con il via da Cerete Basso e linea d'arrivo nel centro di Onore.

Tra i protagonisti attivi della competizione amatoriale ci sarà anche Fabio Maj, l'ex azzurro di fondo che da un paio di stagioni ha abbandonato l'attività agonistica pur rimanendo nel settore come tecnico. Il fondista di Schilpario, prestato allo skiroll per una domenica, non correrà solitario, perché una troupe di Icarus, la trasmissione televisiva che Sky TV dedica ogni settimana al mondo dell'estremo, lo seguirà nel corso della prova e il buon Fabio racconterà agli amici telespettatori le sensazioni di uno sport come lo skiroll e le bellezza naturali di questo comprensorio montano che ruota intorno al massiccio montuoso della Presolana.
