Want to test some skis? There are two events which may be of interest. The season kicks off with the Ski Force Winter Tour and four resort dates. You can test skis from manufacturers belonging to the FIFAS body (Atomic, Dynastar, Elan, Fischer, Head, H2, Kastle, Movement, Nordica, Rossignol, Roxy, Salomon, Scott and Volk). The Ultimate Ski Test Tour has grown out of the Swallowmania event at la Grave and is aimed at freeride skiers.

The Chamrouse stage of the Ski force tour has been cancelled due to lack of snow. It did seem a bit optimistic scheduling this for the 12th December in Chamrouse.
