History

The first competition was held between 29 February and 1 March 1964, when there were two slalom races.[3] The first race, which was contested by 31 athletes and watched by 5,000 spectators, was won by Marielle Goitschel.[3]

Initially, the competition took place on the old FIS course,[4] but in 1978 it was moved to its current location, the Snow Stadium.[5]
