Ski Touring / Skimo Race - Castle Mountain Jan 11th

(144 products)

Do you love ski touring?
Do you ski black diamond runs?
Do you NOT own skimo race skis, boots, or a one-piece lycra suit?

Then this might be for you…

The Castle Mountain Ski Mountaineering Races are happening Jan 9–11, and we want to encourage more ski tourers to sign up and give skimo a try.

For some folks, this weekend is a full-gas test of fitness, speed, and transitions. You’ll see lightweight race skis, skin ripping wizardry, and some very fast athletes.

But that’s not all skimo is.

For others, it’s a chance to get outside, challenge yourself, and ski technical terrain on a fully marked, safe course. If you’re comfortable touring, skiing steeper lines, and pushing yourself a bit, you already have what it takes. Come join Jamie and Ian on the spry team!

👉 To encourage more skimo-curious skiers to toe the line, we’re giving the first 10 people (5 men and 5 women) who sign up for the Individual Race on Sunday, January 11 a FREE pair of Tripoint Lake Victoria sunglasses (~$120 value) — just for signing up and showing up.

How to claim them:
1️⃣ Sign up for the Individual Race before Friday, Jan 9 at noon (register here) – Rec or competitive
2️⃣ Post a photo holding the skis you’ll be racing on
3️⃣ Tag us @spryactive (instagram or facebook) and we will message the first 10 on Friday afternoon

Spry is sponsoring the Individual Race with podium prizes in collaboration with @smileysproject . All six podium finishers will receive a C-Ski Tie — perfect for winter adventures — plus:

🥇 1st Men’s + Women’s: Silva Free 3000 M Headlamp
🥈 2nd Men’s + Women’s: Tripoint 101 Shiceng Dashan Goggles + an extra lens (clear)
🥉 3rd Men’s + Women’s: Silva Smini Fly Emergency Headlamp

Jamie and Ian have entered the race — Jamie’s ski setup in this photo proves you don’t need “perfect” gear to line up, just the stoke and desire to get out for a fast tour.

Grab your skis, share your setup, and come enjoy a day outside in the mountains — there’s snow in the forecast, so conditions should be sweet. We’ll see you at the start line!
