Less than 12 hours remain until the start of the 2012 SuperTour. With two separate FIS point races, one in classic, and one in skate, separated by just an hour, there will be plenty of racing action. And while there is little drama in a one kilometer individual start event, the massive final climb will be agonizing for racers and entertaining for fans.
Both races are counted separately, but an overall winner will be crowned, with $250 in prize money going to the fastest man and woman on the day.
Earlier season results are always hard to predict, and with unknown collegiate skiers, including new European imports, the task becomes even harder. But FasterSkier staff in West Yellowstone are going out on a limb and taking a shot at the top-3 in each race.
