The Alpenglow Sports 10/20K Freestyle, one of the most competitive and scenic races in the Far West, returns to Tahoe XC on Sunday, February 25th at 10am. For those skiers craving a shorter distance, we are also happy to offer the Alpenglow 10k! Both distances depart together in a mass start at 10am, where skate and classic skiers begin together.

In partnership with Tahoe XC and Atomic, Salomon, and Fischer, Alpenglow Sports is thrilled to offer this community-oriented nordic race that is welcoming to all disciplines and ability levels. After you've enjoyed some of Tahoe XC's most scenic trails, skiers will celebrate together with warm chili, cornbread, and adult beverages.

Alpenglow Sports 10/20K Freestyle Wax Clinic

In preparation for tomorrow's Alpenglow Sports 10k/20k Freestyle event, enjoy this cross-country focused (skate or classic) glide ski wax clinic. In this interactive clinic you will learn how to care for your skis, what tools are needed to wax, and participate in a hands-on how to wax your skis so that you can glide smoothly across any type of snow. Come out to Tahoe XC from 12-1:30 for this event.

If you are interested in using this clinic to prepare your skis for tomorrow’s race, please bring your race wax so we can prep your skis together. This clinic will be taught by Toko Tech Team member Roger Chaney, who has extensive knowledge of the ski-industry, and works for Toko as a wax expert. Roger’s goal is to reveal for you some of the mysteries of making skis fast and keeping the bases healthy and clean.

Wax and basic tools will be provided for you to use in this clinic, and available for purchase(20% off!)at the Tahoe XC Retail Shop and at Alpenglow Sports. Space is limited, please sign up at the Tahoe XC Front Desk to reserve your spot.
