Apr 19, 2022·Ski Cross

Well, it is pretty common that after each 4-year-period between Olympic Winter Games many athletes conclude the final stage of their career and head into retirement. Therefore, after the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games season, which has been a quite intense one, the ski cross family has to say “goodbye” to some of their beloved members, who are putting their professional skis aside.

While we are sad to see them leave, we are very thankful for all the great moments those athletes gave us in the world of ski cross and we truly wish them all the best for their future. Of course, we are also hoping to see those familiar faces around the circuit in the near future in some other roles to support the sport.
