History of freestyle
Freestyle is a young sport. Frestylel's sonlock is ski acrobatics. In European countries, it was called "freestyle" that translated from English means "free, free style".
The exact date of birth of this sport is quite difficult to call. It is believed that the story of freestyle in the form in which it exists now, begins with 1971 - the year of the first official competence on freestyle, which were organized in New Hampshire (USA). Before that, freestyle was a purely commercial enterprise: it was a mountain show, intended to entertain the resting public and income extraction.
Freestyle includes: Mogul, ski acrobatics and ski ballet.
In 1926 In Germany, there was a first book completely dedicated to the ski ballet. The author was the skier and climber Dr. Fritz Ruelist. In the book, he first described several challenging maneuvers on skis, which forty years later, followed the basis of the ski ballet.
In 1966 The first school on the preparation of ski ballet specialists was founded in Colorado (USA). Her head of the famous skier and the theoretics of the mountain skiing Dug Pfeife subsequently combined the scattered directions of free riding in a single sport. Ski acrobatics for a long time It was considered the "ski circus" and was a purely commercial enterprise.
In 1911 The newspaper "Moscow Vedomosti" reported that on Sundays on the sparrow mountains in Moscow, lovers of jumps from among the members of the Moscow club skiers are gather. The most deft, fly so far that you have time to remove the jacket in flight. The first one who fulfilled the Salto in front of the specially assembled in the public was John Carlets, a member of the US national team on the northern all-around on Olympic Games 1924 In our country, the first Salto skiing was performed in 1927.
Later when riding on alpine skiing I got a massive character, snow bumps began to form in the slopes for riding in a large number - "Mogul" - the result of the turns of skiers on the same trajectory. On these bug-in tracks - "Mogul Parks" - the skiers began to conduct competitions on a special high-speed descent. This third discipline was called "Mogul".
Modern freestyle is a skiing all-around, which includes three types: Mogul, ski acrobatics and ski ballet. The status of the Olympic sport has mogul and ski acrobatics.
Mogul is the sludge on the mountain skiing along the barride slope at the most accurate straight line up to 250 m with the mandatory execution of two jumps. Ski acrobatics - these are two jumps with a special springboard with the performance of acrobatic elements.
Ski ballet - figure skating to the music for 2-2.5 minutes on a slope up to 250 m long and 35 m wide.
In all disciplines of freestyle, the judges estimate the formulation and complexity of flight, technical skills, artistry of execution. Competition rules for freestyle were approved by FIS in 1978, in the same year international competitions By freestyle was brought to the World Cup rank, and in 1986. By decision of the FIS Congress, the first official World Championship was held in the Swiss city of Engelberg.
The freestyle came to us in the 70s, as an independent sport took a form after 1985, and in the USA, Canada, France, Germany, Austria and Scandinavian countries, " free style"As a direction in skiing develops for a long time, gaining more and more recognition and acquiring rapid popularity.
The first All-Union Competitions on Freestyle took place in February 1986, in the vicinity of the village Gorki. Anna Vershinina and Stanislav Sokoltenko became the first champions of the country in Mogul.
In 1988 An independent federation of freestyle USSR was created. In the same year, for the first time in the USSR, international freteril competitions included in the official calendar of FIS were held in Dombaya. The winner of the three stages of the World Cup became Lisa Kozhevnikov, and the first among Russian freestylers world champions in all-around on the routes of the American resort Wayne became Sergey Schupletsov, in the ski acrobatics - Vasilis Semenchuk.
A significant achievement of freestyle fans was the decision of the IOC adopted in 1984. On the inclusion in the program of winter games 1988. in Calgary demonstrative performances By freestyle.
In September 1988 At the Seoul session of the IOC, it was decided to include freestyle, as a full-fledged Olympic discipline in the White Olympiad-92 program in Alberville. The first to the Olympic regulation was allowed mogul. The Frenchman Edgar Grospiron became the first in the history of freestyle Olympic champion in Mogul, in women - American D. Shybrecht. The second step of the Olympic pedestal in Alberville took the 18-year-old Muscovite E. Kozhevnikov.
In winter games in Norway (Lillehammer-94g.) Mogul joined another discipline - acrobatic jumps.
Most popularity and intensive distribution in different countries of the world of the Young Olympic Sports Freestyle provided the highest skill of athletes and an acute rivalry in the struggle for olympic medals.
In competitions in the ski acrobatics of the Olympic champion, Lina Chirova (Uzbekistan), athletes from Russia S. Stoletsov and E. Kozhevnikov won silver and bronze medals in Mogul.
At Hu111 Winter Olympic Games in Nagano 1998. Freestyle was played by 4 sets of awards in Mogul (men and women) and in acrobatic jumps. The length of the route Mogul - 250 m during the passage of the distance the participant was to make two mandatory jump. The evaluation was influenced by the complexity of jumps (25%), the speed of passage of the track (25%) and the descent technique (50%).
7 springboard was built for jumps. The athlete represented two jumps in its choice, the assessment for which was given, based on the following criteria - the speed of the departure from the cutting table (20%), complexity and technical performance (50%), landing (30%).

Stoletsov and the E.Kozhevnikova, who left active sport, the world leaders in Mogul, did not find a worthy shift. The Olympic program has not yet included a ski ballet, in which Russia holds the palm of the championship.

Born December 27, 1973. in Moscow. Growth - 170 cm. Weight - 59 kg. Student RGAFK. Sport began to study in 1979. First coach - G. Bekker. In the national team from 1989.Os
Olympiad-92 in Alberville - 2nd place.
Olympiad -94 in Lillehammer - 3rd place.
Three-time winner of the World Cup Stages-91.
Coach - Z. Makiyev.
Elizabeth Kozhevnikovka reputation of the athlete brave, desperate, fearless.
At 20 years old became the winner of two Olympiads.
At the Olympics-92 in Alberville, the 18-year-old Muscovite struck everyone, taking away from the nose of the famous Grandess Olympic "silver". Similarly, Lisa on the distance "broke" in the ohut "broke out". And I stroked, and caressed short skiing dumps of each bulb. She went on stunning speed, but the impression is that this ringing speed is unnoticed: the sort of gambling figure. And jumping? Upper class! 23.50 points.
Then Elizabeth suffered injuries. But at the next Olympiad-94 in Lillehammer, it suddenly suddenly was replaced - in the final race for brave music, she was quickly faster than all rivals, showing character and class. In this sport, there is not everything solves the speed, but also the rhythm overcoming the bugrov, the complexity of jumping and the amplitude of movements when they are executed. So, the refereeing here is also subjective, as in figure skating. In Lillehammer, Kozhevnikova "stole" at least silver. Lisa herself was pleased with his speech. I did everything that was able, and maybe even a little more.
Unfortunately, Elizabeth left active sports

From the history
The Olympic debut of the Russian Freestyle took place the Winter Olympic Games in Calgary (1988). The demonstration performances on acrobatics were demonstrated by Vasilis Semenchuk and Andrei Lisitsky.
At the Olympic Games in Albertville Elizaveta Kozhevnikova ranked second in Mogul.
Sergey Shupletsov - two-time world champion in Mogul (1991 and 1993).
Muscovites Elena Batalova, Oksana Kushchenko and Natalia Razumovskaya became the championships in the world in Ballet in 1995, 1997 and 1999. respectively.
Freestyle specialists continue to disputes about the nature of this ski tries. Some firmly convinced of the priority of ski training, others believe that at the head of the angle - skillful possession of the body, characteristic of gymnasts, acrobats, jumpers in the water. Apparently, the truth, as always, must be sought in the middle. Our first world champion Sergei Souchletsov - from skiing, and the first among Russians the world champion Vasilis Semenchuk came to freestyle from gymnastics.
The widespread development of ski acrobatics in the United States and Europe served as the basis for the creation of the International Federation, whose leaders in the 60s sought to include ski acrobatics in the family of Olympic Sports and the World Ski Sports Championship program. In America, this type of skiing received a rather strange name - "hot - dog" that in the literal translation from English means "hot dog". In European countries, the ski acrobatics was called "freestyle" or "free, free-style style". This name has become official.
First, the freestyle consisted of two sections: ski acrobatics on the slopes and ski acrobatics on the tramplines.
The first variant of the acrobatics was the execution during the descents of various turns, squabbles, braking on the heels, descents to the slope, jumps with a variety of turns, flip and other acrobatic exercises, from which various combinations were also compiled. Moreover, it was done both alone and pairs, and even groups. It is known, for example, a flip of skiing, made with an amazing synchronization at the same time with 8 American acrobat skiers, which were dubbed "flying cootions", then this exercise was already performed at the same time 18 acrobats.
The second version of acrobatics is on the springboard. It included execution alone, as well as synchronously with two or three skiers after a leap from the jumping table and shutting down, double flip, twine, rotation around the vertical axis and other exercises, including triple flip, "Mebius tape" - Dead loop With the simultaneous rotation of the body.
The modern Olympic Freestyle is a skiing federal, in which, along with acrobatic jumps, Mogul is present - the descent on the bug-sided slope. In all disciplines of freestyle, the judges estimate the formulation and complexity of flight, technical skills, artistry of execution.
Olympic Games
A significant achievement of fans of this sport was the decision of the International Olympic Committee, adopted in February 1984, on the inclusion in the program winter games 1988 in Calgary demonstile performances on freestyle. Freestyle debut in the program of the Higher Sports Forum took place at the 1992 Olympics in Albertville. The first to the Olympic regulation was allowed mogul. At the Olympic tournament in Lillehammer (1994), another discipline joined him - acrobatic jumps. It remains only for ski ballet.
From the history of Russian sports
Despite high sport rating, Freestyle in Russia continues to be exotic, which, as is well known, in translation from Greek means someone else's ingenic. Only after the XVII Olympic Games, he spoke in Russian. The 20-year-old Muscovite Elizaveta Kozhevnikov distinguished himself, which on a bug art highway of a lillehammer with a length of 223 m with a height difference of 98 m was awarded a bronze award. True, many experts tend to assert that her brilliant and unmistakable performance in the most fast (29.0 seconds) of all the mogue of the passage of the route quite "pulled" to the medal of the highest sample.
With all the artistry, expressiveness, the entertainment of freestyle is quite unpretentious. They can be engaged not only in the mountains, but also on sites, located not on very cool slopes Long just over 200 meters. Therefore, the first fans of freestyle in our country appeared not in the mountains of the Caucasus or Tien Shan, but in Moscow, where the first special base for this sport was built in our country in Krylatsky. Then such bases were equipped in Leningrad and other regions of the country.
In the late 70s, the first sections of freestyle lovers began to work. The eighties became the period of his rapid formation. In 1986, the first All-Union Competitions for Freestyle took place. Then in Chimgans under Tashkent were identified the first champions of the country in acrobatics - Vasilis Semenchuk and in Mogul - Anna Vershinin and Stanislav Sokolanka.
At first, enthusiast enthusiasts were sent to a single bed with a freestyle technical committee at the All-Union Ski Federation. It consisted of representatives of the sports community and specialists of related disciplines - acrobatics, skiing. In 1988, an independent federation of the USSR freestyle was created under the chairmanship of Alexander Ivanitsky. In 1993, its successor in 1993 was the federation of the Russian Freestyle headed by President Vladimir Maslachenko; In 1994, the federation was headed by Lev Cofman.
On the international arena Our freestylers came out in the late eighties and immediately did the first encouraging steps: the honorable place was occupied in the European Cup drawing 1988-1989. And a victory was observed at one of the stages of the World Cup of 1989. The next year, our federation adopted participants of one of the stages of the World Cup.
In 1991, our athletes declared themselves on the world stage. Grounding near the Krylatsky, for the first time put on the mountain skiing by his elder brother, Lisa Kozhevnikova under the leadership of Coacher, Makiyev, became the winner of the three stages of the World Cup, Lina Chemyazov - a silver medalist. At one of the stages of the European Cup of the same year, the victory was won by another student 3. Makiyeva - Marina Cherkasova, the silver medal went to Andrei Ivanov. The greatest success fell to the share of the world champion in the acrobatics of Vasilis Semenchuk and the student Mikhail Vasilyeva 20-year-old Armyman from Chusovaya Sergey Suplettsova, who became the first among Russian freestylers world champion in the all-around on the routes of the American Resort Wayne. Sergey repeated her golden Dubl in Austrian Altenmark. Ballet as one of the varieties of freestyle died at all, and acrobatics slowly, but surely cares. Games in Salt Lake City for snowy magicians should be a fateful stage in this sense.
From the point of view of logic, freestyle is not much younger than the ski ski and could have arisen at the dawn of the twentieth century. At least, to argue with the fact that even then many wanted to create something more than a banal descent from the mountain - enough stupid. Well, the very name and first rules came up with the Americans in the early 70s. In America, at this time, to show their art ownership of mountain skiing was a high fashion. Photos and kinocadras, on which beautiful and brave young people twisted Salto or deftly overcame pit and hillocks could be seen everywhere.
What is common to the ski acrobatics, ballet and might - then no one thought. Someone was released on skis dance pas, someone sought the most uneven descents in the mountains to hit the surrounding technique for the passage of this highway, and someone flew on skis with widespread hands. "Freestyle" is a free style, which means that everything is allowed. In other words, everything that was not similar to the usual ski descent was assigned to freestyle, although it may be more correct to do this. However, international ski Union. There was a special opinion on this. At least, to allow such a massive movement to develop spontaneously, FIS could not, and three ski disciplines were combined into one family and adopted in the Union in 1977. As for the voucher in a big way, it received each of the types of freestyle separately.
The paradox of the last 25 years can be called a missing ski ballet death. Back in 1992, the ballet was at the Olympics as an indicative species, and in the year before, he was excluded from the Frestale Cup program and actually died. For us, this circumstance was very sad, since it was in this discipline that the Russians had very strong positions. Alas! According to the older coach of the acrobatic group of the Russian national team, Andrei Grebennikova, the ballet "closed" the Americans, because they understood that they had nothing to catch in it. Acrobatics was lucky, in particular in the USSR. Gorno. skiing In the 70s we had one of the popular sports, although, perhaps, not the most massive. But on the intellectual level, it was considered one of the most significant ones. Skiing was a good tone, the occupation of intellectuals. It also gave the impetus to the origin of the freestyle.
The senior coach of the Russian national team acrobatics Andrei Grebennikov recalls:
It all started with photographs from foreign magazines. We have seen beautiful frames of high jumps and pyruettes who made Europeans and Americans on the mountain skiing. The first such photos were treated as much as 1936, when the first crisp tried to make a flip or just to make a beautiful jump. As before us, the first Salto committed one amateur at the very beginning of the 70s, Colonel of the Ministry of Defense. He was not a skier (I didn't even remember him the surname now), and this trick made it on the sparrow mountains, for his acquaintances. Well, the first double flip made your humble servant. We were then a person eight enthusiasts who experimented with mountain skiing. In 77th in the village of Gorki Dmitrovsky district On the slope made a snow springboard, on which I made a double flip. Actually, the springboard could be called quite conditionally - a certain thrusting surface was constructed at the end of overclocking.
Organizational freestyle is one of ski species Sports, competitions in which are held under the auspices of the International Federation of Skiing.
The World Freastyle Cup is played from 1978. In 1986, the first world championship was held in French Tine.
In the Winter Olympics, the Freestyle was first presented as an indicative speeches in 1988, at the XV Winter Olympics in Calgary. The first Olympic medals in freestyle (in the male and female mogul) were played on the next winter Olympiad in Albertville. In subsequent years, the Olympic program disciplines by freestyle expanded:
- In 1994, ski acrobatics was added to Lillehammer;
- Ski cross, debuted in Vancouver in 2010;
- In 2014, Half Pipe and Slopestyle were added to the Winter Olympics program in Sochi.
Thus, today, Olympic disciplines of freestyle are ski acrobatics, miul, ski-cross and slapstyle.
The USSR freestyle appeared in the 1970s. On July 1, 1985, the Ski Freestyle Department of the USSR Sports Committee was created. The first All-Union Competitions on Freestyle took place in February 1986, in the vicinity of the village of Gorki. In 1988, an independent federation of the USSR freestyle was created.

The glasses are accrued for the technique of separation from the springboard, the trajectory of the flight, figure and landing. 5 judges estimate the figure (out of 7 points), 2 judges estimate the landing (of 3 points). The greatest and smallest estimate for the flight discarded the remaining 3 estimates summarize. From estimates for landing, an average estimate is derived and multiplious to 3. The resulting flight amounts (maximum - 21 points) and landing (maximum - 9 points) are folded and multiplied by the complexity of the element.
