The Ladies & Gentlemen Tour is an international Alpine skiing circuit with 4 events in 4 resorts.
A fun PARALLEL SLALOM exhibition event with the best French skiers competing on the Jean-Luc Crétier slalom course in Plagne Centre.
The aim is to boost the FIS circuit, which is the third international level after the World Cup and the Europa Cup. Its innovative and entertaining competition format attracts a wide audience and offers a festive
side to downhill skiing, especially as the events are scheduled during the school holiday period.
The spectators can chat to the athletes and rising stars of French skiing and get autographs as well as enjoying a great ski show!
The up-and-coming French skiers will be competing in a Parallel Slalom against athletes from the French teams who are used to skiing in World Cup and Europa Cup events, from the round of 16 through to the grand final, with 32 competitors qualifying for the night slalom.
Each event is a full-scale training session on a race format that became an Olympic discipline in 2022 with the "Team Event" in Beijing.
