TÄRNABY: SMALL VILLAGE, BIG SKIING Skiing Gold: Small Swedish Village Produces World’s Skiing Elite TÄRNABY, SWEDEN – 12th February 2007 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Located at the centre of Sweden’s most accessible and spectacular alpine regions, it is little wonder that the remote and peaceful village of Tärnaby continually produces Swedens – and the worlds - skiing elite. Surrounded by 550 000 hectares of mountainous ranges – it’s Europe’s largest nature reserve and 3 times the size of Luxembourg - and with a population of only 600 inhabitants, Tärnaby has proven to be an unparalleled fertile training ground for world champion alpine skiers. Its far north location offers the best possibility for training with long seasons and great coverage. Tärnaby has a historic and illustrious skiing tradition and the list of medalists is long; Olympic gold medalist Ingemar Stenmark and skiing legends Stig Strand and Bengt Fjällberg. More recently, Olympic gold medalist Anja Paerson and newcomer Jens Byggmark have been dominating the world circuits with their extraordinary poise and power. Indeed, it seems local favourite Anja Paerson is going from strength to strength after recently picking up her 7th World Championship gold medal with her victory on Sunday´s downhill. This makes her the only person in history to win gold medals in all five world championship disciplines. And all eyes are now on Jens Byggmark after his astonishing two World Cup win Slalom in Austria this year. “Credit must be given to Tärna IK Fjällvinden, the local sports club,” comments to Stig Strand another local skiing champion. “There must be something in the water up here” he chuckles, as he recounts the sports club impressive successes: 122 World Cup victories, 10 World Championships victories and 3 Olympic gold’s. “The club is very hands-on,” states Thomas Ringbrant, director of Tärnaby’s Ski Camp and an active club member. “It’s run on a volunteer basis … the people here have a real passion for skiing and, of course, everyone is inspired Ingemar Stenmark”. It is the work of all the local people in the village for generations that has made it possible to foster these ski stars. Fast Facts: Population: Circa 600.
