Ice World Cup, the competition calendar
The second Ice World Cup gets underway in Chamonix on 28 December 2000
![]() The second ever World Cup circuit is composed of 6 stages: after the first event in Chamonix (cancelled last year at the last minute) the athletes will travel to Austria for the traditional competition in Pitztal (12-14/01/2001). The next event will be held one week later in Italy's Val Daone (18-21/01/2001), before moving indoor to Saas-Fee, Switzerland (26-28/01/2001). The penultimate stage in à re, Sweden will take place at the beginning of February (02-03/02/2001) while the final event, like last year, will be held in Kirov, Russia (09-11/03/2001). Two of the stages, Chamonix and Val Daone, take on the formula of an ice-boulder competition (similar to last year's event in Cortina), while Saas Fee tests the competitors mixed ice ability. The remaining three are classic Difficulty events. The first edition of the Ice World Cup was won by the Canadian Will Gadd, ahead of the Frenchman François Lombard and Daniel Dulac second and third respectively. The women's event was won last year bu the American Kim Csizmazia, ahead of the Hungarian Ildi Kiss, second, and the Russian Irina Ryzhenkova, third. |
