Ski Instructor World<br />
Championship 2005<br />
Levi, Finland<br />
In Levi, a small Finish Ski Resort, north of the<br />
polar circle, from 01 to 04 December the<br />
international elite met for their world<br />
Championship, which occurs every 4 years.<br />
The Finish landlords organized a outstanding<br />
event and conducted perfect conditions for skiers<br />
and snowboarders.<br />
Tobias Streibl was a member of the German<br />
Team at this World Championship. With a Silver<br />
Medal in the Demonstration competition and a<br />
Bronze Medal in the Carving Dual Relay, Tobias<br />
was one of the most successful participants. It<br />
was the biggest success for the German Ski<br />
Instructor Federation ever.<br />
Silver Medal in Demonstration competition:<br />
The heart piece of the World Championship is the<br />
Demonstration. A team is put together with six<br />
Skiers and the jury judges the synchronic,<br />
dynamics, creativity and technique quality.<br />
Fourteen teams from different nations competed<br />
for this event. Favorites always are the Austrian<br />
and Swiss teams. After the first run the German<br />
Team was on the 6 th place, but could jump on 2 nd<br />
place with an exceptional second run. It was a<br />
sensational success for the German Ski Instructor<br />
Federation to show their development and skills<br />
the last years.<br />

Bronze Medal in Carving Dual Relay<br />
Three skiers and one snowboarder and at least<br />
one woman, it is a team at this event. The<br />
German ski Instructor Federation nominated two<br />
teams. Tobias Streibl was put in team Germany 2.<br />
Germany 1 lost already their first run. Germany 2<br />
was successful against Switzerland 5 and one of<br />
the favorite Team France 1. Unfortunately on<br />
team member lost a ski in the semi final against<br />
Finnland 1. But the team with Tobias Streibl was<br />
successful in small final and celebrated the<br />
Bronze Medal.<br />
It is a gift to be a part of such a successful team<br />
and to have the chance to come to Lapland is for<br />
sure a once in a life time experience. To be at the<br />
end so successful to become Vice World<br />
Champion and a Bronze Medal was completely<br />
unexpected and will be always a part of my<br />
memories.<br />
But the next challenge is waiting in Korea. In<br />
January 2007 the Interski Congress 2007 will be<br />
conducted in Yong Pyong, Korea. Tobias Streibl<br />
will again be a part of the team which represents<br />
Germany Skiing.
