The discipline is experiencing a difficult time in which you can openly speak of involution. Injuries aside, the technical level seen in 2013 -'' 14 is appeared generally more lower than the two previous winters, also in view of next year some movements now reads Switzerland and the Netherlands, will be cleared by the withdrawal of de facto'' only talented athlete (respectively Bigna Windmüller and Wendy Vuik) of which were equipped.
As evidence of the "recession" is the proposal of the FIS Sub-Committee, which will be approved by Congress in early June, to reduce from 50 to 40 participants in the competitions of the World Cup with simultaneous narrowing of the national contingents from 6 to 5 units.
In such a context, the International Federation has provided only 2 races of Summer Grand Prix and the same number of Continental Cup The latter, however, are likely to have a poor level of participants as will be in conjunction with the latest evidence of the FIS Cup
At least the third level of discipline has a schedule slightly pulposus as 8 races are scheduled. In this regard, given the geographical location, will be can see evidence of Fis Cup with a level of quality of participants average comparable (if not even higher) than those of the CoC or even the GP.
