MEDIA MANUAL
Dear Ski Friends, Welcome to the Vail Valley for the 2015 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships. The Media Operations staff hopes your visit to Vail and Beaver Creek for these Championships is both productive and enjoyable. For those of you that have not been here since 1999, we think you will discover a community that has changed dramatically over the past 16 years, especially considering the more than $2 billion that was invested in “Vail’s New Dawn” enhancement project at the start of the millennium. For those of you who have been annual Audi Birds of Prey World Cup guests, we still have some tricks up our sleeve that we hope will impress you, including the new Raptor Ladies’ speed course in Beaver Creek. This Media Manual will provide you with useful information relative to the overall 2015 World Championships schedule, venues and operation, as well as specific information regarding the operation and services of the Talons Media Center, Westin Media Center and Manor Vail Media Center. Should you have any questions during the Championships, please do not hesitate to contact a member of the Media Operations staff. Once again, welcome to the Vail Valley. We truly hope that you will Dream, Live and Share the 2015 World Championships with us and the world. John Dakin Chief of Media

2015 MEDIA ACCREDITATION AND OPERATIONS All media accreditation distribution will be handled at the 2015 FIS Alpine World Championships Welcome Center, located in the Gondola Ballroom of the Westin Riverfront Resort & Spa in Avon. Media credentials WILL NOT be available for pick-up at the Talons Media Center, Westin Media Center or Manor Vail Media Center. Please wear your credential in a visible location at all times when moving about the venues. All 2015 Media Centers are no-smoking venues and we ask that if you smoke, please do it outside and dispose of your cigarettes appropriately. In addition, we ask for your cooperation in properly disposing of all food and drink containers. Recycling receptacles will also be available. The Organizing Committee has provided security for all World Championships facilities, including the Media Centers. However, the Organizing Committee will not be responsible for lost or stolen items. Please do not leave your equipment unattended.
Talons Media Center The primary Media Center for all Beaver Creek races, this operation will be housed in the newly constructed Talons Restaurant, located adjacent to the Red Tail Stadium. The 18,000 square foot facility will serve as both media work room and media food service for the 12 days of training and competition at Beaver Creek. The two-story restaurant will feature approximately 280 workstations. Press conferences will be conducted on the outside deck in a specially designed tent with seating for approximately 75 media. Press conferences will also be broadcast on the TV monitors within the workspace. The Talons Media Center will be the primary workspace for journalists and photographers with a print deadline within a few hours of the conclusion of a race. We ask that media representatives who do not have impending print deadlines utilize the Westin Media Center in Avon, which will have free 5 up/5 down Wi-Fi as well as all results and other information about the Championships. In all media centers, please be respectful of those on deadline by keeping your conversations at a low level; those who are disruptive will be asked to move to another location. Food service will be available on the lower level of the restaurant and a special menu has been developed for the World Championships at a reduced cost. Each day will feature a different special at a cost of $17 inclusive. The Talons Media Center will open on January 28, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and will have the same hours through February 1. Beginning on February 2 and running through February 15, the Talons Media Center will be operational from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., with the exception of February 10 and 11. If there is no change to the competition schedule, Talons will operate from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on February 10 and
11. Those who have not completed their work by the time the Talons Media Center is due to close can resume their stories and transmissions at the Westin Media Center (see below). Access to the Talons Media Center will be via media shuttles from Avon and Beaver Creek Village. You may also ski to the venue via Arrowhead/Bachelor Gulch/Strawberry Park/Larkspur Gulch (ask volunteers or hotel personnel for more specific details) or by hiking/snowshoeing on Trail 2015, which measures 2015 meters/1.3 miles. Internet Access The Talons Media Center will offer 2 up/2 down wireless access at no charge. Additionally, there will be wireless access in the Mixed Zone and for photographers, both on-course and at the photo platform. Cell service has been significantly expanded for most carriers. Mixed Zone The Mixed Zone is designed to maximize interviewing opportunities for the written press and non-rights holding radio entities. Video recording devices cannot be used to collect footage from the Mixed Zone without prior approval from the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) for media outlets based outside the United States, or the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association for those within the U.S. Failure to comply can result in loss of credentials to the event.
Westin Media Center Located in Avon, the Westin Media Center is the overflow workspace from Talons and Manor Vail as well as a morning/evening and open date work area. The Westin Media Center, located on the lower level of the Westin Riverfront Resort & Spa, features 3,000 square feet of space, with seating for approximately 160. It is located in the same complex as the 2015 FIS Alpine World Championships Accreditation Welcome Center. The Westin Media Center will open on January 28 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. From February 2 through February 15, the Westin Media Center will be open from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Wi-Fi will be available at no charge.
Manor Vail Media Center Located across the street from the Golden Peak Stadium in Vail, the Manor Vail Media Center will be operational for the Nations Team event and Men’s Qualification races. The Manor Vail Media Center features nearly 3,400 square feet of space, with seating for approximately 150 people. The Manor Vail Media Center will open February 10 for the Nations Team event and will be available on February 12 and 14 for the Men’s Qualification races. For the Nations Team event, the Manor Vail Media Center will open at noon and close at 7 p.m., while on the two Qualification days, hours of operation will be 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wi-Fi will be available at no charge.
Photo Operations Francis Bompard of Agence Zoom is serving as the Photo Chief for the 2015 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships. The selection of photographers who will be granted on-course access will be made by the Photo Chief following FIS protocol along with input from the Chief of Media and Deputy Chief of Media. Per the FIS guidelines, no more than 40 photographers will be granted on-course access for any race and must be expert skiers with previous experience shooting alpine ski races. Photographers must follow any directives issued by the Photo Chief, which are designed for the safety of everyone on the course. Failure to comply may result in the revocation of the event credential. For this event, no freelance photographers without assignment will be granted on-course access.
Media Course Inspection Passes A limited number of course inspection passes will be available for each race; contact the FIS Race Director for the Ladies or Men to request a pass. Passes are distributed at the Team Captains meetings and anyone who requests a pass must be an expert skier capable of being on a course that has been prepared – including water injection – to meet the highest level of FIS requirements. It is the discretion of the FIS to award or reject a media inspection request.
Press Party All credentialed media are invited to the Press Party at Dobson Arena in Vail on February 9 at 7:00 p.m. A ticket, which is included in the accreditation packet, is required for entry. We regret that no guests are allowed at this event. And please RSVP to the e-mail sent to you prior to your arrival.
Festivals and Ceremonies Access The events are free and open to the public; we recommend arriving early to ensure an ideal viewing location. Obtaining images at the concerts is determined by each individual artist. Photographer access to medals presentations is also being coordinated by Francis Bompard.

Notes
CERMONIES AND AWARDS INFORMATION Opening Ceremonies Monday, February 2, 7:00 p.m., Championships Plaza at Solaris, Vail Village The Vail Valley officially welcomes the world back to Vail and Beaver Creek, featuring fireworks, a light show, live music and special guest appearances, the Opening Ceremony of the 2015 World Championships will be our community’s first opportunity to shine as the world looks on. The show will be divided into three segments – Dream It, Live It and Share It – celebrating the values that make ski racing so special, along with those at the top of the sport. While the majority of the ceremony will be kept a surprise, fans can expect an hour of live entertainment filled with heartwarming notes and a touch of the unexpected. Come early – attendance is free to the public, but it is expected the venue will reach maximum capacity.
Awards Presentation Nightly, 6:30 p.m., Championships Plaza at Solaris, Vail Village Each race day, fans will have a chance to celebrate and congratulate the fastest on the hill that day with the official Medals Ceremony. The medals presentation will immediately follow the races and Après Avon. The FIS Medals will be presented to the top athletes, followed by that evening’s free concert. Come early and celebrate the best alpine skiers from around the world each day. In addition, Sierra Nevada’s Winter Beer Camp will kick off the festivities on the International Bridge in Vail each day of the Championships. Open from 4-9 p.m., Sierra Nevada will be serving the official beer of the World Championships – Start House Ale, along with a number of other Sierra Nevada brews, including the just-launched Nooner Pilsner and forthcoming Beer Camp Hoppy Lager. The brewery will also be providing instructional tasting events to help educate those fans that are new to American craft beer.
Closing Ceremonies Sunday, February 15, 4:00 p.m. Red Tail Stadium, Beaver Creek Mountain The last hurrah, the Closing Ceremonies of the 2015 World Championships, represents Vail and Beaver Creek’s “passing of the torch” to Vail’s sister city, St. Moritz, Switzerland, which is preparing to host the 2017 World Championships. Following the conclusion of the final event, the Men’s Slalom, the ceremony is also your chance to bid farewell to the world and be a part of history, as the Vail Valley closes the book on another chapter in its great legacy of ski racing. Come for the giveaways, come for the festivities, and come help us lower the FIS flag as we say goodbye to the world. A more detailed schedule follows. Please note the schedule is subject to change.

Fixed routes flow through Beaver Creek Village to all the different properties from 8am-5:30pm daily, and the on-demand shuttle assists homeowners and their guests by picking them up at their front door and taking them to their destination between 7am and midnight daily.
HOTEL SHUTTLES Many hotels in Vail/Beaver Creek offer a shuttle service to/from common locations within their respective towns/resorts. Please contact the concierge at your hotel for additional information. Beaver Creek hotel shuttles, however, should not be asked nor will they be allowed to drive directly to the Red Tail Stadium.

SECURITY Organizers of the 2015 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships are committed to providing a safe and secure environment for everyone associated with the event and the general skiing public. Toward that end, and partially as a result of incidents around the globe, an extensive security operational plan has been developed specifically for the Championships. Please wear your credential so that it is visible at all times when moving about the venues. Please note there are no replacement credentials available at the venues. If you lose or forget your credential, you will need to visit the Welcome Center to get a replacement; the cost will be $50 US unless proof of theft is provided. Lost supplementary access devices (photo on-course access, lift passes and the like) will not be replaced unless proof of theft is provided. Bag checks will be conducted at various access points to the venues and during certain windows of time. The venues include: Red Tail Stadium, Golden Peak Stadium and Championships Plaza at Solaris. Media personnel will have an express lane to avoid any potential delays due to the checks, but please allow sufficient time that includes passing through bag check when traveling to the venues. Not only is it important to wear your credential to gain access to the Media Centers and other media-specific zones, but also to board media direct transportation as well as to pass through express bag check lanes. The Media Operations staff has provided security personnel with a “tools of the trade” list that will allow media representatives to carry items that otherwise would be questioned or confiscated, which includes:
Multi-tool Knives (maximum blade length is 3.5 inches/8.9cm) Computer Computer Accessories Cameras – Still and Video Computer/Camera Cables Wi-Fi Hotspot Devices and Cables Batteries Tape Battery Chargers Plug Adaptors Camera Cleaning Items Cigarette Lighter Pelican cases with electronics Fiber / Wires / Cables Electronic Testing Equipment Converter Boxes (Small Electronic Equipment)
Please remember that carrying certain items is illegal and therefore not exempt from confiscation. Those include: Firearms Explosives Narcotics Drug Paraphernalia While smoking marijuana is legal in Colorado as a whole, it is still illegal on lands owned by the U.S. Government, which includes the Vail and Beaver Creek ski mountains as well as the Talons Media Center (or any other on-mountain facility). Glass Containers Alcohol Air Horns Pepper Spray Please also know there are open container laws in Colorado, which means you are not allowed to walk down the street with an open alcoholic beverage unless you are within a special event area that has a checkpoint to ensure you are of proper age (21). We recommend you carry some sort of valid identification that includes your birthdate if attending any of the public social functions where alcohol may be purchased. Laws pertaining to driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs are strictly enforced in Eagle County; event transportation will be available well beyond the race times so that you may enjoy the festivities throughout the valley. All personnel performing any of the security measures, including credential checks or bag checks, are doing so to ensure your safety and will be following protocol that has involved many hours of discussion and planning. Please be respectful of those individuals, many of whom are volunteers.

2015 TELEVISION COVERAGE The television pictures that are beamed to the world throughout the two weeks of the 2015 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships in Vail and Beaver Creek will be provided by internationally recognized industry leader EUROVISION. The company will serve as the official Host Broadcaster of the Championships. Under the agreement with the Vail/Beaver Creek Organizing Committee, Eurovision Production Coordination (EPC), the European Broadcasting Union’s (EBU) production company, has built an ambitious broadcast installation to provide an international signal in High Definition for all events for all rights holders. A team of 200 broadcast professionals will join EPC in establishing and manning more than 100 camera positions on Vail and Beaver Creek Mountains. The Host Broadcasting agreement completes a hat trick of open tender contracts the EBU has secured regarding the 2015 World Championships; it also holds separate agreements for the worldwide media rights along with the marketing rights. Headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, the EBU is the world's foremost alliance of public service media organizations, with members in 56 countries in Europe and beyond. For the 2015 Championships, EPC will have 11 on-site rights holders, along with three TV studios, 22 commentator positions, seven announcer positions, 14 live TV mixed zone boxes and eight live radio mixed zone positions. These operations will be coordinated from the International Broadcast Center, a three-level building with 30,000 square feet of space, located just below the Red Tail Stadium in Beaver Creek. When fully occupied, the IBC will be home to approximately 500 broadcasters. Headed by Michael Koegler from ORF-TV, EPC will have 90 camera positions on the Raptor Ladies’ course and 80 positions on the Birds of Prey Men’s course. Vail’s Golden Peak venue will feature a total of 27 camera positions for the Nations Team Event, while the Championships Plaza at Solaris will play host to eight camera positions for the Opening Ceremony and nightly medals presentations. EPC’s coverage philosophy will reflect unbiased coverage of each athlete, while also creating a definitive storyline of the race through the use of innovative camera angles and technique. In addition, the desire is to integrate the beautiful landscape of Vail and Beaver Creek, along with the colorful atmosphere and crowds, all the while capturing the emotions of ski racing. In December 2013, The U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association announced it had executed an agreement with the EBU, giving USSA the media rights to the 2015 and 2017 FIS Alpine and Nordic Ski World Championships, including the 2015 World Championships in Vail/Beaver Creek. Under this agreement, the USSA will manage rights distribution in the USA for major national networks, sports networks and other cable broadcasters, including exclusive multiplatform access in the USA of these showcase FIS events, with rights for television, radio, online and mobile platforms. The joint venture is the first time a National Ski Association has entered into a broadcast partnership at this level with a global rights holder like EUROVISION.
As a result, American ski racing fans will have unprecedented coverage of the 2015 World Ski Championships as USSA also negotiated an agreement with the NBC Sports Group, made up of NBC, NBC Sports Network and Universal Sports to become the domestic rights holders. The NBC Sports Group will combine for a record 25 hours of coverage, including 16 hours of live coverage. The broadcast group will provide live U.S. coverage of every event for the first time in history. The estimated worldwide audience for the 2015 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships is anticipated to be 750 million people in 70 nations. Detailed information on the U.S. broadcast schedule can be found on the 2015 website: http://vailbeavercreek2015.com/events-2/

FIS.WC-2.0.1 C
THE CREATION OF RAPTOR It began with a walk down Beaver Creek Mountain in September of 2007, turned into a squiggly line on a topographic map, and later formalized and included in Beaver Creek’s master plan expansion documents. In July of 2012, the first shovel was put in the dirt and the construction process got underway. Now, over seven years after that first exploraion, Raptor is ready for her World Championships debut as Beaver Creek’s new ladies’ speed course. Raptor can trace its roots back to that September day when representatives of the FIS, Beaver Creek Mountain and the Vail Valley Foundation bushwhacked their way down areas of the mountain in the proximity of the existing Birds of Prey course. The line that would eventually become Raptor was not one of the first two routes explored, but rather an afternoon hunch that would end up paying huge dividends. Mapping and flagging the proposed trail followed, not to mention frequent retooling and refining of the proposed concept, both on and off the mountain. Finally, on July 2, 2012, construction on ski racing’s newest crown jewel got underway. “We were very excited to get started building the new women’s course,” explained Ceil Folz, president of the Vail Valley Foundation and head of the 2015 World Championships Organizing Committee. “It was a day we’ve looked forward to ever since a new speed course for the ladies became a part of our bid to secure the Championships.” In addition to beginning construction on the new ladies’ course, Beaver Creek Mountain crews also began the process of reconfiguring the Red Tail finish arena, work that included moving the existing timing building to the east side of the finish area. The snowmaking system on the ladies’ course was also installed. The new ladies’ course starts on the Solitude run, following it past the top of Chair 9 before entering the Peregrine through a new cut at the top of the trail. The course then follows upper Peregrine toward the Golden Eagle pump house, entering the largest section of new trail cut, named Kestrel, below the pump house between Golden Eagle and Peregrine. Rejoining Peregrine, the course then follows the run to Red Tail, where it meets the Birds of Prey men’s course at the Red Tail Jump and into the finish arena. The first order of business was to “connect the dots” between the portions of the three existing ski runs that made up the new course. The process entailed clearing approximately 22 acres of trees in two primary cut locations, creating 17 new acres of skiable terrain for Beaver Creek, and installing 30 acres of new snowmaking. “The truly exciting part of this new course for Beaver Creek is that we not only get a world-class downhill for the world’s top competitors,” offered Doug Lovell, Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Beaver Creek Resort, “but our skiers have new terrain to experience. It’s a win-win situation for everyone.”
But perhaps the most impressive feat of all was moving a two-story 130,000-pound timing building from one side of the finish area to the other. One Kenworth tractor trailer cab, a pair of industrial strength Caterpillar excavators, weeks of preparation and planning and a little luck did the trick. Bill Davis and his team from Rocky Mountain Structural Movers of Parker, Colorado, welded a steel frame to the building, lifted it from its foundation with hydraulic jacks, positioned two sets of eight wheels underneath and “drove” the structure to its new location … with a little pushing and pulling help from the Cats. Compared to that, the rest was easy. During the summer of 2013, crews worked on Phase II of the ladies’ speed course construction, getting underway, seemingly as soon as the last snow melted from the racecourse. They removed old television cable from the men’s Birds of Prey course, in addition to finishing electrical, telecommunications, fiber connections and safety installation on the ladies’ track. The new Talons Restaurant was completed and serves as home to the print and photo media for annual World Cup and the 2015 World Championships competitions. Finally, seven snowmaking compressors were upgraded to allow for more production, while also realizing significant energy savings over the existing system. The official coming out party and test event for the Championships came over Thanksgiving week in 2013 as Beaver Creek played host to the world’s top racers for the inaugural Raptor World Cup competitions. The races, which marked the women’s first and only opportunity to race the new course prior to the 2015 Championships, were dominated by Switzerland’s Lara Gut, who captured both the Downhill and Super-G wins. Sweden’s Jessica Lindell-Vikarby emerged victorious in Giant Slalom, while American teen sensation Mikaela Shiffrin picked up her first career World Cup Giant Slalom podium, finishing in the runner-up position.
BIRDS OF PREY: HISTORY Beaver Creek’s Birds of Prey racecourse was built during the summer of 1997 in preparation for the 1999 World Alpine Ski Championships. Designed by Olympic Downhill gold medalist Bernhard Russi of Switzerland, Birds of Prey starts west of the top of Chair 8 and finishes at the bottom of Red Tail at the confluence of Chairs 10 and 11. The course features a vertical drop of 710 meters and contains an average gradient of 27 percent, increasing to 45 percent in the middle of the course and again in the final third of the course. The first competition on Birds of Prey took place December 2-6, 1997, with a pair of men’s World Cup Downhill races and a men’s World Cup Super-G. The course was officially opened with a ceremonial Native American blessing, performed by tribal elder Red Ute, along with a traditional ribbon cutting. Germany’s Stefan Krauss was the first racer down Birds of Prey in the opening day of Downhill training and Italy’s Kristian Ghedina was the first race winner, capturing the opening Downhill on December 4, with a time of 1:41.16. The remaining two races of the inaugural weekend of competition were won by Austrians Andreas Schifferer (Downhill #2) and Hermann Maier (Super-G).
During the 1999 Championships, Birds of Prey was the site of the first ever World Championships gold medal tie as Maier and Norway’s Lasse Kjus each mined gold for their Super-G efforts, with times that were identical down to the thousandth of a second. Maier’s Austrian teammate Hans Knauss finished third, a mere one-hundredth of a second off the pace. An estimated 20,000 spectators were on hand Feburary 6, 1999 to witness the World Championships men’s Downhill competition, the largest crowd in U.S. ski racing history. The race was won by Austria’s Hermann Maier, one of his record eight victories on Birds of Prey. The fastest World Cup or World Championships Downhill race time ever recorded on Birds of Prey is 1:39.59, courtesy of the U.S. Ski Team’s Daron Rahlves in December 2003. That win also ended a 19year American Downhill victory drought on U.S. soil, marking the first time since Bill Johnson’s 1984 Downhill win in Aspen that an American male had stood on the top step of a World Cup Downhill podium in the United States. History was also made on Birds of Prey in 2004 with the one-two American Downhill finish of Bode Miller and Rahlves. It was the first time U.S. men claimed the top two spots in a World Cup Downhill and the first time since Phil and Steve Mahre captured gold and silver medals in slalom at the 1984 Olympics in Sarajevo that Americans had gone one-two in any discipline. Rahlves and Miller swapped places a year later at the Birds of Prey Downhill; collectively they had five one-two finishes as well as a tie for first at the 2005 World Cup Finals Super-G in Lenzerheide, Switzerland. The 2009 Birds of Prey made history as well as Switzerland’s Carlo Janka captured all three races contested in Beaver Creek. The feat marked the first time that a racer has been victorious in three World Cup races in three consecutive days since the legendary Frenchman Jean-Claude Killy turned the trick in 1967. Janka’s heroics also marked the first time since 1999 that one racer has won three Birds of Prey events in the same year. That mark was set by Hermann Maier of Austria, who won the Giant Slalom, Downhill and Super-G that winter. The Americans earned back home turf bragging rights in 2011 when Bode Miller and Ted Ligety claimed the top step of the podium in Downhill and Giant Slalom respectively, while Lindsey Vonn etched her name in the history books with her Super-G win, becoming the first woman to win a race on the Birds of Prey. Ligety and Miller would deliver a one-two Giant Slalom punch in 2013, while Ted would record his fifth consecutive win in the discipline in Beaver Creek during this past December’s Audi Birds of Prey Men’s World Cup.
