An Event Dedicated To Young Freeskiers


Launched during the 2006-2007 winter season, The North Face® Ski Challenge presented by GORE-TEX® grew over the last three years to include a roving pan-European qualifying tour, concluding with event finals in Val Thorens, France. Open to all European residents—both boys and girls—born between 1989-1997, The North Face® Ski Challenge presented by GORE-TEX® is arguably the most important competition for younger skiers hoping to break into the circuit. The event promotes all mountain skiing, as each kid competes in both big-mountain freeride and park & pipe freestyle contests. The event also places increased emphasis on avalanche awareness and mountain safety.

Is it open to people born between 1989-1997 for this year only, or is that how its going to be forever? What I mean is, will it continue to be only for 12-20 year olds, or will it just be an ever changing age group born within that time frame?

Banner-Mail-Foot-2" is very good

I'm gutted I missed this in Ruka last winter, will there be another one next winter?

I love to go at mountain is a very exciting adventure, I usually like to walk, climb and go around the mountain. It's a nice experience because I can identify with nature that makes me feel renewed.

The choice is as much as you. You may well not have selected your challenging time, but it is possible to select how you may react to it.
