Organised every year since 2016, the World Classic Tour, the professional long-distance roller-ski circuit, will not be taking place in the summer of 2025. “This decision follows financial constraints and in particular the loss of our title sponsor, Mitsubichi Electric, after three years of collaboration,” says the organisation in a statement.
While the World Classic Tour is already looking ahead to 2026 to put together a reinvigorated top-level circuit, a special challenge is being put in place for this year.
The Blink Festival, the Toppidrettsveka and the Trollhättan Action Week – which organise the biggest races of the summer – are effectively setting up the Champions Tour 2025.
