The Canmore World Cup season 2023/2024 starts tomorrow in Canada. Now, the FIS has changed the competition format for the first day. Here is the new complete competition program for the event.

Canmore, Canada, is the place for the next stage of this year’s cross-country skiing World Cup. The International Ski & Snowboard Federation (FIS) has now changed the competition format for the first day due to delayed delivery of timing equipment.

The Canmore World Cup starts on Friday, February 9, now with a 15km (4×3.75km) mass start race in freestyle technique (instead of a 10km interval start in freestyle technique initially planned), followed by a sprint race in freestyle technique on Saturday, February 10, a 20km mass start race in classic technique on Sunday, February 11, and a sprint race in classic technique on Tuesday, February 13.
