Getting Involved!
Skiers with a background in alpine racing are ideally suited to competing in Ski Cross. The high speed and technical nature of alpine ski racing lends means that the skills are easily transferable between alpine racing and ski cross.
Where to compete? The Coop Ski Cross tour in Switzerland provides the best route into the sport! The events are open to all and you might even find yourself lining up next to an Olympic Champion. Different categories for female, under 20 and FIS licenced athletes. Details below.
