First Ski Club: In the picturesque town of Trysil, nestled amidst the snow-capped peaks of Norway, history was made in 1861 with the establishment of the world’s inaugural ski club. Known as the “Trysil Skytte-og Skiløberforening,” this pioneering organization marked a pivotal moment in the evolution of skiing as a sport. With its founding, skiing transcended its utilitarian origins and began its transformation into a beloved recreational activity. The club’s establishment laid the groundwork for the future development and popularization of skiing, cementing Trysil’s place in skiing history.

With nerves of steel and unparalleled skill, Origone carved through the snow with unmatched precision, earning him the title of the world’s fastest skier. This remarkable feat of speed and agility showcases the pinnacle of human achievement in the realm of skiing.
