World Cup cancellation in Canada: lack of snow causes excitement!
In an unexpected turning point, the organizers of the Ski World Cup in Mont-Tremblant, Canada, had to cancel the first races of the season. Due to the lack of snow, no artificial snow is possible, which makes it impossible to carry out the competitions the next weekend. The technicians of the Austrian Ski Association (ÖSV) must therefore go home after the slalom in Killington on Sunday. The situation is worrying, since the preparations for the women's giant slalom on December 2 are now severely impaired, as reported.
The upcoming competitions in Mont-Tremblant would not only have been the return of the women's Ski World Cup to Quebec after 40 years, but also a significant spectacle for the snow-crazy fans. With a hoped -for at 15,000 people, the athletes would have been challenged at a high level. The entire ÖSV team, led by head coach Roland Assinger, had prepared for the races, which were originally planned with a gripping first round at 5:00 p.m. and the final at 8:15 p.m., as skiweltcup.tv

In the meantime, the fate of the athletes remains uncertain, while some like Valérie Grenier prepare for a comeback. After her serious injury, which she suffered from the Super-G in Cortina d’Ampezzo in early 2024, Grenier worked hard to return to her old level. The developments for their return make it clear how quickly fate can turn in ski sports. Fans and sports enthusiasts now have to hope for more information, while the ups and downs of the ski season continue, supported by the commitment of the athletes and coaches of each nation.
