Since 1957, the slope hosts one of the oldest and most prestigious international alpine ski competitions in the world known as 3-Tre, except in 1961.

Since 1967, the premiere World Cup season, it has been hosting several disciplines including slalom events, and since 1986 only slalom. Swedish skier Ingemar Stenmark won record 5 slaloms.

Alberto Tomba is a former World Cup alpine ski racer from Italy. He was the dominant technical skier in the late 1980s and 1990s. At 182 cm and 90 kg, his powerful build was a contrast to the lighter, more traditional technical skiers who prioritised agility over muscle. Tomba was able to take advantage of the introduction of spring-loaded ski gates which replaced the older, solid gates in the early 1980s by using his power to maintain a faster, more direct line through courses. Tomba won three Olympic gold medals, two World Championships, and nine World Cup season titles: four in slalom, four in giant slalom, and one overall title. He was popularly called Tomba la Bomba.
