Cross-Country Skiing

There are two basic techniques in cross-country skiing: the classic technique, in which athletes move their skis parallel to each other along machine-groomed tracks in the snow and the free technique, where skiers propel themselves forwards pushing off with the edges of their skis. At the Winter World Masters Games in Innsbruck there will be three events (Short, Middle and Long) for both techniques. Each athlete can choose to participate in up to three events. Furthermore there will also be a relay race where four athletes, who must exceed a combined minimum age, can form a team.
