8th Nostalgia Ski World Championships in Saalfelden Leogang

Last weekend, from 26 to 28 January 2018, the eighth Nostalgia Ski World Championships took place in Saalfelden Leogang. A special highlight was the new route of the long-distance run from the Asitz middle station I/II. The extremely selective course demanded everything from the 123 participants. Of course, there were a few spectacular falls, but fortunately without injuries.   New this year was the introduction of several age groups and an average time classification for the long-distance run. The winners were delighted to receive beautiful crystal trophies.

Sunday's classic slalom on the Schantei Osthang was another exciting event. A sometimes treacherous course with a jump over the Edelweiss ski jump decided victory or defeat. The new Nostalgia Ski World Champions were determined in the combination of long-distance skiing and slalom. A total of 290 enthusiastic racers from 7 nations came to Saalfelden Leogang this weekend in their grandparents' sporting gear and provided some exciting moments.
