This Finnish Pro Team is gearing up for its third season in Ski Classics. After securing the 16th position in the Pro Team ranking during Season XIV, the former Team Kaskipuu, now Team Kaski – Ekovilla, is looking forward to the upcoming winter season. Watch the video!

Team Kaski – Ekovilla was founded by Kari Varis and two successful entrepreneurs, Matti Kaski and Tuomas Mikkonen, who have unyielding passion for long-distance skiing.

TEAM KASKI – EKOVILLA


For the upcoming Ski Classics Season XV, the squad is bringing eight Pro Team athletes, four men and four women: Matti Kaski (1976), Tuomas Mikkonen (1977), Veli-Matti Räsänen (1994), Fanny Kukonlehto (2003), Juuso Mäkelä (1994), Oona Kettunen (1994), Eerika Konu (2001), and Katri Lylynperä (1994).

“This will be the third season for our team and the goal is to be stronger than last season. We have professional athletes and also two successful entrepreneurs who are in great shape, a good mix of experience and youth,” says Pro Team Director Kari Varis and adds:

“Our primary goal is for the team to enjoy and have fun. We have also set the goal of being in the Top 10 in the Pro Team competition. We have a good team’s spirit which I believe can bring us the best results.”

The Pro Team has great potential, and they will fight tooth and nail for the title of the best Finnish Pro Team the upcoming season.
