The Saudan Couloir Ski Race Extreme returns after a 20+ year hiatus from Whistler. Dubbed the 'world's steepest ski race', the Saudan Couloir covers over 2000 feet of terrain with approximately 40-degree angle slopes. Named after legendary skier Sylvain Saudan, the race will see all kinds of racers, big mountain pros, and amateurs coming out of the woodwork to test their might at this extreme race and maybe even win some prizes.
The World Ski and Snowboard Festival promises to be another one for the record books. Don't miss a minute of the action by visiting the WSSF 2018 schedule on their website!
