Hi Lars, if skis are faster than hiking, depends on a few factors, e.g. your skills, equipment, terrain, temperature, etc. Yes, a very good skier who is used to these conditions will likely be fast. BUT athletes on foot can be fast, too. So, it's not really "ridiculous" ;-) It's just different. Hopefully, we will see a lot of strong skiers in future years. I would love to see this discipline become more popular in the MLAU. Best regards, Robert
