Stifel U.S. Alpine Team Men Back to Train at European Home Base

The Stifel U.S. Alpine Team men were back in action at the Skiarea Alpe Cimbra in Trentino, Italy, a consistent host of our Stifel U.S. Alpine Team men over in Europe. The team and Alpe Cimbra have agreed to a renewal of the four-year agreement between the Stifel U.S Alpine Team men's national ski team, Trentino Marketing and the Azienda per il Turismo Alpe Cimbra Folgaria Lavarone Lusérn Vigolana, which enables the athletes to train on the Folgaria slopes during the Audi FIS Alpine Ski World Cup season.

The provincial councilor for craftsmanship, commerce, promotion, sport and tourism, Roberto Failoni, commented on the important renewal. "The agreement reached with the Stifel U.S. Alpine Team is important because it will cover the next four competitive seasons. It is a great opportunity for international visibility and promotion of Trentino.”

With Ryan Cochran-Siegle’s strong 2021-22 season and a silver medal at the 2022 Beijing Olympics, he will again be the Ambassador of Alpe Cimbra, Trentino. In honor of the return to training and the renewal of the agreements, the men’s speed team and technical teams were present and training together on the hill.

Patrick Riml, the Stifel U.S. Alpine Team alpine director also emphasized the importance of this partnership. “The men’s alpine team has forged a long-term relationship with Alpe Cimbra, Trentino, featuring world-class training and hospitality,” said Riml. “This partnership is an integral part of equipping our men’s alpine team with necessary resources and training as we head through the World Cup seasons. For our athletes, who spend a majority of the winter in Europe away from home, the partnership with Alpe Cimbra, Trentino is a huge benefit.”
