Para-alpine skiing classification is the classification system for para-alpine skiing designed to ensure fair competition between alpine skiers with different types of disabilities. The classifications are grouped into three general disability types: standing, blind and sitting. Classification governance is handled by International Paralympic Committee Alpine Skiing. Prior to that, several sport governing bodies dealt with classification including the International Sports Organization for the Disabled (ISOD), International Stoke Mandeville Games Federation (ISMWSF), International Blind Sports Federation (IBSA) and Cerebral Palsy International Sports and Recreation Association (CP-ISRA). Some classification systems are governed by bodies other than International Paralympic Committee Alpine

  • Las clasificaciones paralímpicas de esquí alpino se utilizan en el esquí alpino paralímpico para asegurar una competición justa entre los esquiadores con distintos tipos de discapacidades. Las clasificaciones se agrupan en tres tipos: de pie, en silla, y deficientes visuales. Estos tres tipos se subdividen a su vez en un total de 13 clases, en función del grado de discapacidad. La regulación de las clasificaciones la dirige el Comité Paralímpico Internacional. Algunos sistemas de clasificaciones están gobernados por otras instituciones aparte del Comité Paralímpico Internacional, como las Special Olympics. En este deporte pueden participar todas las personas con discapacidad física o visual. No pueden participar personas con discapacidad mental. Los primeros sistemas de clasificaciones para esquí alpino paralímpico se desarrollaron en Escandinavia en la década de 1960, originalmente diseñados para esquiadores con amputaciones. En esa época aún no se había desarrollado el equipo necesario para permitir la participación de esquiadores con lesiones en la columna vertebral. En los primeros Juegos Paralímpicos de Invierno de 1976, este deporte tenía dos clasificaciones. En la década de 1980 surgieron clasificaciones para esquiadores con parálisis cerebral. Al mismo tiempo, inspirados por la , comenzaron los esfuerzos para hacer de la clasificación un sistema más funcional. Hasta diez clases existían en esa década, y desde entonces se han hecho esfuerzos para mejorar la eficiencia en las clasificaciones reduciendo el número de clases para que se entreguen menos medallas. La normativa utilizada en las competiciones está adaptada del reglamento de la Federación Internacional de Esquí. Los esquiadores con deficiencias visuales compiten con la ayuda de guías que les dirigen por las pistas. Para los esquiadores que compiten en la categoría de pie, las distintas reglas en las clases determinan qué tipo de equipo pueden usar en competición, como bastones especiales o un único esquí. Los que compiten en silla utilizan un sit-ski (silla-esquí). Los esquiadores se clasifican en función de la evaluación médica y su posición corporal cuando esquían. Los esquiadores con deficiencias visuales se valoran únicamente en función de la evaluación médica. (es)
  • Para-alpine skiing classification is the classification system for para-alpine skiing designed to ensure fair competition between alpine skiers with different types of disabilities. The classifications are grouped into three general disability types: standing, blind and sitting. Classification governance is handled by International Paralympic Committee Alpine Skiing. Prior to that, several sport governing bodies dealt with classification including the International Sports Organization for the Disabled (ISOD), International Stoke Mandeville Games Federation (ISMWSF), International Blind Sports Federation (IBSA) and Cerebral Palsy International Sports and Recreation Association (CP-ISRA). Some classification systems are governed by bodies other than International Paralympic Committee Alpine Skiing, such as the Special Olympics. The sport is open to all competitors with a visual or physical disability. It is not open to people with intellectual disabilities. The first classification systems for para-alpine skiing were developed in Scandinavia in the 1960s, with early systems designed for skiers with amputations. At the time, equipment had yet to be developed to allow participation for skiers with spinal cord injuries. The goal of the early classification systems was to be functional but ended up being medical classification systems. At the first Winter Paralympics in 1976, there were two classifications for the sport. By the 1980s, classification existed for skiers with cerebral palsy. At that time, with inspiration from wheelchair basketball classification, efforts were made to make classification more of a functional system. Ten classes existed by the 1980s, and since then, efforts have been made to improve the efficiency of classification by reducing the number of classes so fewer medals can be rewarded. Competition rules for classes use rules set by or modified from rules created by the International Ski Federation. For skiers with visual impairments, guides are used to assist the skier down the course. For standing skiers, different class rules determine what sort of equipment is allowed in competition, such as one pole, two poles or no poles, or one or two skis. Sit skiers use a specially designed ski called a mono-ski. Skiers are classified based on medical assessment, and their body position when they ski. Blind skiers are evaluated purely on a medical assessment. (en)
