The North American VASA will introduce two-day stage racing to the Midwest ski scene this winter. In addition to the usual trophies for Saturday's VASA race and Sunday's Hagerty Insurance Gran Travers race, something new and exciting is planned for 2010. The racer with the best both-days' combined time from these races will win a new pair of racing skis from these award sponsors along with the trophy for winning:
• xcskishop.com GRAND CHAMPION - best combined time for 50km Freestyle and 16km Classic races will win a trophy and top of the line racing skate skis sponsored by Grayling's Cross Country Ski Shop
• crosscountryski.com RESERVE GRAND CHAMPION - best combined time for 27km Freestyle and 16km Classic races will win a trophy and a pair of Salomon Equipe 9 racing skate skis sponsored by Cross Country Ski Headquarters of Higgins Lake - Roscommon.
All skiers registering for these qualifying races are automatically entered for GC and Reserve GC at no extra charge. There are separate male and female categories but no separate age divisions for this award. Race weekend is Feb. 13-14, 2010. All races are held at Timber Ridge Resort, featuring the well groomed VASA routes deep into the scenic Pere Marquette state forest, Traverse City, Michigan.
