Women celebrate comeback on the streak: ski spectacle in March 2025!

Kitzbühel, Österreich - A historical comeback is emerging in Kitzbühel, because for the first time since 1961 women will drive the legendary streak again! On March 8 and 9, 2025, two women's super GS will take place on the famous race track in the European Cup. The Kitzbühel ski club president Michael Huber is enthusiastic: "We have women again," he explains with joy in an interview with the "Tyrolean daily". For him it is a "heart project" that is finally realized. The races start at 10:30 a.m., with the athletes start on the mouse trap floor.

The ladies on the streak - a spectacle of the extra class

with a line -up of 15 Austrian runners, including the discipline leader Nadine, the Austrian team will be strongly set up. Nadine Fest is considered a "strip expert" and has already written about the myth of this route. It is unique that women are not traveling the entire route; Parts such as the notorious mouse trap, bridge shot and old swaths will bypass. Nevertheless, it is new territory for all athletes and demands courage and perseverance. Already on Friday you have the opportunity to visit the route to prepare for the event. Reinhard Fernsebner, group trainer of the Speed ​​women, confidently comments: "I trust our ladies a lot."

The races will not only be a highlight in the audience, but will also be broadcast on television. The ORF shows the competitions from 10:25 a.m. on Sport+, with a summary of Saturday at 6:35 p.m. on ORF one. The approvals for this return of women in Kitzbühel give rise to the hope that this could be the beginning of a new tradition in alpine skiing. There were no women's races in the Gamsstadt in the past 64 years, and so the weekend of March 8 and 9, 2025 is not only sporty, but also historically relevant, as is recorded in the article by "Krone".

The anticipation for this event is great and the expectations are high. "It will definitely be a spectacle," says Fernsebner and you can tell that the women are ready to write history again. The return of women to the streak is more than just a race; It is a significant signal for equality in winter sports.
