Some may ask exactly what is a Kombi Event? Lets give a quick description of the event:

The Kinder Kombi is an internationally recognized event for Kinder (U14 – U08) racing, that consists of a mixture of both standard SL and GS turns and gates. The event meets developmental needs for this age group, creating a tactical awareness by blending sections of different gates in a flowing, rhythmical, constantly changing pattern. Like a SL and GS course it has a standard start with competitors racing on a defined path to reach the finish line with the fastest time. The popularity of the event has caught on quickly and athletes of all ages have a lot of fun with the challenge. If you like racing Slalom and GS, you’ll have a lot of fun doing them both on the same course.

For those looking to join in on the event, non-members of USSA are allowed in the event. For more information on Race Finale Weekend at Ski Brule Click Here
