Alex Harvey Lead Three Canadian Men into Top-20 of Grueling Ski Tour Canada
Harvey finishes fifth, Ivan Babikov 14th, Devon Kershaw 16th in eight race Tour
Emily Nishikawa was the best of the final five Canadian women who completed the eight-race journey across Canada with a 37th-place.
72 women and 86 men started out on the adventure, with 49 women and 51 men completing the endurance test. 12 Canadian women were at the start, with 5 finishing and 14 Canadian men started, with 7 finishing. Not surprising, considering the gruelling nature of the event and that many of the Canadianās were younger development skiers.
There were some great personal performances by all the Canadians and the event was a massive learning opportunity for all 26 Canadians, and they inspired the next generation of Canadian racers and their parents. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
Thank You Canada for the support of these amazing 26 athletes, their coaches, wax technicians & more! A historic journey that couldn`t have happened without you & that will stay in our hearts forever!
