Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a ski slope and a method for its manufacture a ski slope.
  • ski lifts chair lifts, gondola lifts and others for the Transport of skiers provided for skiers (also as ski facilities referred), which comfortably support skiers in a short time and thereby Allowing repeated ski runs without strenuous ascents on foot is a pleasure the so-called alpine skiing (also known as alpine skiing) of a big one Popularity.
  • alpine skiing also known as alpine skiing
  • ski slopes by the operators of the ski facilities on inclined terrain on which skiers can safely descend into the valley.
  • ski slopes are usually prepared and secured, with a secured Ski slopes are marked on both sides along the slopes and from time to time is checked (at least at the end of the day) by so-called piste patrolers. ever Depending on the level of difficulty, a ski slope is classified as blue (easy), red (intermediate) or marked black (heavy) ski slope.
  • ski slopes are usually groomed mechanically by means of rollers, milling, snow blowers and other mechanically driven Snow-working tools attached to so-called snow groomers and transported and driven by them.
  • the SKUS Sudiss Commission for Accident Prevention on Snow Sports Valley Rides stipulates that all ski slopes marked blue, red or black within three days be prepared for a snowfall.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a ski slope, which also experienced skiers enables a challenging but safe skiing.
  • the solution to the problem is defined by the features of claim 1.
  • According to the invention has a ski slope created in an inclined terrain two lateral Slope edges that are marked with edge marking means. Through the slopes and the slope of the terrain is defined as a slope direction. Between the two marked slope edges are a first slope section as a prepared slope section and a second slope section as an intentionally unprepared slope section formed, the second slope section next to in relation to the slope direction the first slope section is arranged.
  • the slope direction is as a parallel direction to a center line between the two marked slope edges in descending direction (in relation to the slope) defined, with the center line being the one between the two slopes Points formed line is understood. It essentially corresponds to that general direction of travel (also known as general direction of departure) of the the ski slope to skiers and valley changes usually several times along the entire length of the slope.
  • the second slope section is in relation to the slope direction arranged essentially parallel to the first slope section.
  • the edge marking means can comprise a plurality of marking rods, those of the kind customary for marking the slopes of the slopes in the slopes are arranged along rows of rods.
  • the skier By inside a controlled slope with marked side edges a groomed slope section and an unprepared slope section parallel to each other are trained, the skier is offered the option of either over the groomed slope section or over the unprepared slope section downhill without having to leave the marked and controlled slope.
  • the skier can practice the technique of skiing on the unprepared section of the slope Try and practice in unprepared, challenging terrain without being on the safety of a controlled and marked slope must be waived. He can in particular the so-called techniques of freeride skiing and mogul skiing practice and learn without exposing yourself to excessive dangers must or that he has any prohibitions regarding skiing in not for that Skiing must cross approved terrain.
  • the ski slope according to the invention is Particularly attractive for those skiers who do skiing on groomed slopes already mastered, but not enough experience for safe skiing outside of secured (i.e. edge-marked and controlled) slopes to have.
  • the ski slope according to the invention faces an ordinary, fully prepared one Piste has the further advantage of being able to prepare the piste offers less effort because the area of the ski slope to be prepared is smaller is because a section of the ski slope is deliberately left unprepared can.
  • ski slope parallel to the deliberately unprepared section also one Prepared section, even a less experienced skier can at any time Ski down the ski slope, because he is not forced to go anywhere over an unprepared one Ski down the slope section. He can open the unprepared section at any time drive around the prepared section of the slope.
  • the boundary between the first slope section and the second slope section by means of section boundary marking means marked.
  • section boundary markers can be similar or even be of the same design as the edge marking means and e.g. also in Marking bars arranged in rows comprise, as used for marking Ski slope edges are common.
  • the section boundary marking means are preferably optically distinguishable from the edge marking means, so every skier immediately recognizes whether a row of poles is now a slope edge or the section boundary between the groomed and unprepared piste sections marked.
  • the section boundary markers are different colored Marking rods include as the edge marking means. Is further it is advantageous in the uppermost area of the first and second slope section (i.e.
  • one or more information boards or others install appropriate display means that indicate to the skier that the ski slope in the subsequent (first) slope section on one side of the section boundary marking means is groomed while the ski slope is in the following (second) slope section on the other side of the section boundary marking agent unprepared is.
  • the section boundary marking means are preferably designed such that if necessary, they can be quickly and easily removed from the ski slope and on another Can be reinstalled on the ski slope. This creates the opportunity alternatively the area of the first and the second slope section can be changed quickly and easily by the section boundary marking means installed on the ski slope removed from their previous installation locations and on new, from the previous distant installation locations reinstalled on the ski slope become.
  • Such section boundary marking means can e.g. marking poles include that are quick and easy to switch.
  • the boundary between the first, groomed slope section and the second, unprepared Slope section is preferably designed such that it is for skiers is passable in both directions. This is especially for inexperienced skiers the inhibition threshold lowered, at least skiing in unprepared terrain to try once. Because of the border that can be passed in both directions, it can easily during the descent between the first and the second section of the slope switch back and forth.
  • first and the second slope section e.g. with barrier tapes, nets or other suitable Barriers to shut off the skiers, or the first and second sections in such a way that natural blocking agents such as Trees, streams, etc. at least partly a border between the two that is not passable for the skier Form sections.
  • the skier must then be at the beginning of the slope area decide with the two adjacent slope sections, either completely over the prepared first slope section or completely over the unprepared to ski down the second section of the slope.
  • the second slope section on the inside of a curve is the Ski slope created, while the first section of the slope is created on the outside of the curve is.
  • Ski slope is more common in the area of the inside of the curve drive on as in the area of the outside of the curve. Frequent use of the second, unprepared piste section promotes the desired emergence of a mogul slope, which increases the fun for the experienced skier.
  • the first, groomed slope section and the second, unprepared slope section Comprehensive ski slope can be an easy one, according to the relevant regulations ski slope marked in blue. This means that even inexperienced skiers will find it Possibility to try skiing in unprepared terrain.
  • the ski slope with the first slope section and the second slope section can also a medium-difficult ski slope marked red in accordance with the relevant regulations be to the intermediate skier, who are usually red marked ski slopes use the opportunity to ski in unprepared terrain.
  • the ski slope according to the invention can also be a heavy, black marked Ski slope, in which case, however, only experienced skiers who do this Master skiing on black slopes, from being able to ski in can use unprepared terrain on a secured ski slope.
  • a method for producing a ski slope according to the invention is characterized by this from that the first piste section in known for the preparation of ski slopeskind is groomed regularly from time to time during the second piste section left unprepared for at least a week.
  • the second slope section can also last for several weeks and even during an entire ski season be left unprepared.
  • the second, unprepared slope section is preferably in an area of the ski slope trained who was prepared in previous years and is known to that it is heavily frequented by skiers. Due to the high traffic Snow humps are formed by skiers in the unprepared section of the slope that finally a mogul slope is created in the unprepared slope area. Such Mogul slope increases skiing fun for the experienced skier.
  • the areal Ratio of the first to the second slope section at the beginning of a season section depending on the number of skiers expected for this section of the season changed on the ski slope. For example, at the beginning of a season section with an as deeply estimated skier frequency of the second slope section enlarged and the first slope section can be reduced in area. Thereby the effort required for grooming the slopes can be reduced by using the total area of the ski slope to be prepared is reduced. If section boundary marker the boundary between the first and the second slope section mark, only the section boundary marking means need for this purpose moved into the previously prepared first section of the slope and then the entire enlarged second slope section should be left unprepared.
  • section boundary marking means the boundary between the first and the For this purpose, mark the second slope section only the section boundary marking means into the previously unprepared second slope section offset and then the entire enlarged first slope section prepared become.
  • Another possibility for enlarging the unprepared second area Slope section consists of only the unprepared slope edge Edge marking means marking slope section away from the center of the slope to be moved outwards so that not only the second section of the slope, but the ski slope is widened overall. In this case, the effort for preparing the slopes remains same because the total area of the groomed slope sections does not change becomes.
  • Fig. 1 shows a simplified, schematic partial view of the plan of an inclined Terrain section in which a ski slope 10 is created.
  • the terrain section is in the sense of one from above (in relation to the representation of Fig. 1) down sloping slope.
  • the ski slope 10 has two lateral slopes 11, 12 (in Fig. 1 with solid Lines shown) on the edge marking means in the form of marking rods 11.1, 11.2, 11.3, 12.1, 12.2, 12.3 are marked. Through the slopes 11, 12 and the slope is a slope direction 13.1, 13.2, 13.3 which is defined in 1 is shown by means of arrows 13.1, 13.2, 13.3. The area shown in Fig. 1 the ski slope 10 forms a curve in such a way that at location A in this area of the slope Skier entering and leaving location B at this slope area overall from the skier's point of view a right turn.
  • first slope section between the two marked slope edges 11, 12 20 as groomed slope section 20 and a second slope section 30 as deliberate unprepared slope section 30 is formed.
  • the edges of the first section of the slope 20 and the second slope section 30 are shown in FIG. 1 with broken lines.
  • the second slope section 30 is in relation to that represented by the arrow 13.2 Slope direction next to the first slope section 20, the second slope section 30 in the interior of the curve formed by the ski slope 10 and the first Slope section 10 is arranged in the outer region of this curve.
  • the boundary between the first slope section 20 and the second slope section 30 is by means of section boundary marking means in the form of marking rods 15.1, 15.2, 15.3 marked.
  • the marking bars 15.1, 15.2, 15.3 of the section boundary marking means differ in color from the marking poles 11.1, 11.2, 11.3, 12.1, 12.2, 12.3 of the edge marking means, otherwise they are identical to the latter.
  • the marking rods are first 11.1, 11.2, 11.3, 12.1, 12.2, 12.3 of the edge marking means and the Marking rods 15.1, 15.2, 15.3 of the section boundary marking means on the designated places in the snow. Then be the first Slope section 20 and, with the exception of the second slope section 30, all others Slope sections of the ski slope 10 regularly in the manner known for the preparation of ski slopes machine-groomed from time to time during the second section of the slope 30 is left completely unprepared.
  • More and more snow humps are formed over the second slope section 30, so that over time a mogul slope is formed in the second slope section 30.
  • the ski slope 110 shown in FIG. 2 differs from that shown in FIG. 1 Ski slope 10 only in that the marking rods 15.1, 15.2, 15.3 of the section boundary marking means are arranged offset to the outside of the curve, so that the first slope section 120 of the ski slope 110 shown in FIG. 2 as a whole occupies a smaller area than the first slope section 20 of that shown in FIG. 1 Ski slope 10, while the second slope section 130 is that shown in FIG. 2 Ski slope 110 takes up a larger area than the second slope section 30 of the ski slope 10 shown in FIG. 1.
