The action continues on December 18th with a challenging Giant Slalom race, where competitors will navigate a technical course, showcasing their agility and control. The final day, December 19th, features a Slalom race that promises to be a nail-biting finish to an already electrifying event.

The race is open to international competitors, attracting talent from across Europe and beyond, including local Norwegian ski clubs. This diverse field ensures a high level of competition and provides a valuable experience for all participants, regardless of their home country.
