Biography
Carlo finished sixth in the slalom and fourth in the Alpine Combined at the 1962 FIS Alpine Skiing World Championships. In the 1966 World Championships, he finished 20th in the downhill race. In the slalom, he was fourth in the first leg, clocking in 53.72 seconds (2.39 seconds behind leading Bengt-Erik Grahn). In the second leg, he was second, clocking in 47.84 seconds but only 0.14 seconds behind Louis Jauffret, the eighth of the first run, and therefore it was enough to win – he was the first starter of the race, and now he was the first after the race. At that time, the procedure for a second leg was different from that of today. Not the 30th (or the 15th) clocked racer started the second leg, but the racer with bib no. 15 (or, if no. 15 was out in the first run, that one who was next). Because Swedish racer Grahn had no. 2, he was the last racer before Mr. Senoner. But Grahn didn't finish; when Carlo started, Guy Périllat was leading; Périllat was the second of the first leg (0.58 seconds ahead of Senoner; in the second leg, Périllat was clocked in 49.11 seconds, place 11), but Senoner could achieve 47.84 seconds, so he won with a margin of 0.69 seconds.
