The FIS Super Series event held between December 20th to 23rd at Station Mont-Tremblant provided high caliber racing, attracting some of the best competitors in the U18, U21, and Senior categories.

The four day event was well organized, with the race committee demonstrating great planning skills when dealing unpredictable conditions such as fog and a full-on winter blizzard. with 60 cm of snow forecasted, the committee decided to hold two days of racing into one. Thursday event was to go as schedule with two runs in the morning enabling Friday’s scheduled event to be run in the afternoon. Everything went as planned, event the fog did not deter. Unfortunately, the fog returned on Sunday which, combined with high winds, greatly compromised visibility. The decision to cancel the men’s Giant Slalom event was a difficult one but was the right call.
