Michele Boscacci and Davide Magnini uncatchable at the 13th Monterosa Skialp. The Alpine troops of CS Impero, second in Champoluc in 2020, returned to the Monterosa Skialp setting a new race record.
On the route starting and finishing from Gressoney, the Trinité will now have a time of 2h36’32”. Taking the top step of the podium in the “pink” challenge was the unprecedented duo made up of Martina Valmassoi from Veneto and Claudia Boffelli from Bergamo. For them it was an all-attack race which led them to finish victorious in 3h30’13”. The 2022 best time of Alba De Silvestro and Giulia Murada therefore holds up (3h05’18”).
Almost 100 teams at the starting line of the super classic “by night” designed on the Monterosa Ski slopes between the Gressoney and Ayas valleys. The starting list is truly impressive with several of the world’s best interpreters of the specialty who battled on the 30km and 2800m d+ entirely within the Monterosa Ski ski area, the first in Italy to have opened the doors to ski mountaineering with a project that It includes dedicated uphill itineraries and spectacular descents back onto the slopes.
Five very steep climbs and as many descents made even more treacherous by fog and sleet make the Aosta Valley one of the strongest night ski mountaineering trails in the world.
Ready to go and in the men’s competition the winning couple immediately engaged in a duel with the other Italians Alex Oberbacher -William Boffelli which lasted until halfway through the race. Then, while two Alpine soldiers took off, their direct opponents suffered the return of the new duo Matteo Eydallin – Werner Marti. At the finish line in Gressoney standing ovation for Boscacci – Magnini (2h36’32”), second place for Marti – Eydallin 2h38’16” and third for Boffelli – Oberbacher 2h42’22”. Completing the top five are the transalpines Gedeon Pochat – Francois D’Haene and the locals Jacques and Didier Chanoine.
In the women’s category behind Martina Valmassoi – Claudia Boffelli (3h30’13”) second place to Giuditta Turini Katrin Bieler (3h43’35). Also on the podium with them Claudia Tiolo and Silvia Duca (4h09’27”). Following in order are Giulia Lantelme – Valentina Picca and Marika Sette – Chiara Musso.
It should be noted that from this year, in collaboration with the Corrado Gex Ski Club, the organizing committee has also proposed a promotional test dedicated to the youth sector on a route of reduced length and differences in height specifically designed to bring the young talents of the specialty to the finish line in Gressoney .
