by skitrax.com

February 25, 2016 (Toronto, ON) – We’re excited to announce the launch of our inaugural Ski Tour Canada 2016 Fantasy Contest and grand prize of an amazing Salomon Kit valued at $1,360, as the FIS XC Ski World Cup wraps up on Canadian soil with 8 stages of racing starting in Gatineau, Que. on Mar. 1 and ending at the legendary Canmore Nordic Centre on Mar. 12 with the historic awarding of the fabled Crystal Globes for the first time outside of Europe.

Anticipation is brewing as the Canadian team of 26 skiers led by local star, Alex Harvey, is ready to take on all comers along with their US counterparts led by Jessie Diggins, hoping to bring local fans to their feet as the world’s best cross-country skiers gather to battle for glory and over $900,000 (640,000 CHF) in prize money at Ski Tour Canada alone.

Team registration is now open (see link below) for our Ski Tour Canada 2016 Fantasy Contest with lots of great prizes still being finalized. Register or revise you team until 10pm on Feb. 29 – and please check back often as countries can revise their team entries up until 2pm (local time) on Feb. 29.

Here’s how the Ski Tour Canada 2016 Contest works
Submit your team of unique individual skiers including four (4) men, and four (4) women plus two (2) Outlaw Skiers (one male and one female) not in the top 15 of the FIS World Cup overall rankings as of Feb. 21 (Lahti WCup). The menus for all skiers are available at registration as well as a link to the FIS World Cup Ranking where you will find more details on each skier.

Points will be awarded following each STC stage based on each skier’s performance and published regularly at skitrax.com so you can follow your team’s progress and see how you compare with other players and the actual STC standings.

    Hi
    Thanks again for organizing these fun contests! I think there is an error on the list, however, as it is possible to pick Sundby as the male outlaw:)

    Jess Diggins is not on the list. Is she not entered….?

    I’m from Russia. I want to take part in the competition, but I also want to win prizes. Too bad that the only North American residents are eligible to win prizes. Too bad.
