Trial riding has its origins in Great Britian. The idea is to master<br />
difficult terrain slowly and without errors while standing<br />
on one’s bike. <strong>St</strong>opping, pushing, or propping oneself up, even<br />
if it just means putting one’s foot down briefly, is an error.<br />
<strong>St</strong>aying calm and relaxed, manoeuvering the bike with precision,<br />
always keeping one’s balance, and exact motor coordination<br />
are the key for successfully getting through Vorarlberg’s<br />
first trial parcour. And it’s located in the most<br />
wonderful spot: in the middle of stunning natural surroundings<br />
at the foot of Arlberg pass. The skills acquired on the trial<br />
course, the sense of balance, and the concentration training<br />
come in quite handy while skiing, too. Which is why<br />
e-trialling is a popular alternative during the Ski World Cup<br />
athlete’s training – the local skiing association SCA has been<br />
making good use of the facilities.
