Lo skiroll mondiale arriva in Valle Brembana

Nel prossimo fine settima, nei giorni di sabato 22 e domenica 23, a Oroslavje in Croazia prende il via l’edizione 2013 della Coppa di Mondo di skiroll.

Ecco dunque nascere un calendario di Coppa del Mondo che si svilupperà quest’anno in sette tappe in diverse nazioni europee: 22-23/6 Oroslavje (Croazia), 29-30/6 Lenna (Italia), 5-6-7/7 Tripoli (Grecia),26-27-28/7 Novgorod (Russia),30-31/8 ed 1/9 La Bresse (Francia), 14-15/9 Morez (Francia) e 20-21-22/9 Dobbiaco (Italia).

Ad intervallare la serie di Coppa del Mondo, i Campionati Mondiali ospitati dal 4 all’8/9 a Peterstal in Germania. Nel calendario di Coppa compaiono dunque anche Bergamo e la Bergamasca - terra ferace di fondisti fino a livello agonistico mondiale, alcuni dei quali fortemente impegnati pure nel “rollismo”- con una tappa in Alta Valle Brembana. Precisamente a Lenna. Ci si domanderà quale possa essere la motivazione di una collocazione in terra bergamasca di una tappa della Coppa del Mondo. Va precisato che sono due le motivazioni prioritarie. La prima: lo skiroll è praticato da tempo in Valle Brembana e nella convalle Valserina, e nel recente passato, nelle stagioni estive, sono state promosse gare che pur essendo a livello amatoriale hanno riscosso ampio successo partecipativo e fino ad alto livello agonistico e di pubblico, segni evidenti questi di grande interesse per questo sport. A esservi coinvolti a livello di passione per lo sport - ed ecco la seconda motivazione - alcune persone sportive nel cuore che hanno entusiasticamente aderito alla proposta dell’organizzazione di una gara importante quale appunto una prova di Coppa del Mondo. Tra queste i titolari di alcune industrie bergamasche e vallari che si sono raggruppate in pool per garantire alla manifestazione adeguato supporto economico. Infine ecco, determinante l’input arrivato a Giovanni Gervasoni, titolare dell’Officina Molinari, da Sergio Bonaldi, fondista serinese e praticante lo skiroll fino a livello mondiale e vincitore della Coppa del Mondo 2013 di sci nordico sulle lunghe distanze che è stato nei mesi scorsi efficace ambasciatore della gara si skiroll presso le altre squadre internazionali. Arrivando ora specificamente all’appuntamento organizzato in termini tecnici dallo Sci Club Roncobello e dal Brianza Skiroll Club, sono in programma una prova individuale a skating a cronometro a Lenna su circuito cittadino nella mattinata di sabato, mentre la domenica mattina è prevista la prova mass start in salita in tecnica classica con partenza da Branzi ed arrivo a Foppolo, notorie stazioni climatiche e sciistiche. Collateralmente alla prova in salita di domenica si svolge una gara per amatori che vede già confermata la presenza di atleti da diverse parti d’Italia.

Oltre alla pratica agonistica, la manifestazione ha elevato interesse di promozione turistica. 

La sistemazione alberghiera degli atleti internazionali è curata da BremboSki. Durante le gare il pubblico potrà visitare le bancarelle allestite per promuovere le attività gastronomiche e artigianali della zona.

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

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).

With sprint race the FIS Rollerski World Cup was over.

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 ?

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.
