Dear Masters Welcome to the 30th year of the Kandahar British Masters which we are delighted to be working once again with Châtel. This year s dates are 16th to 18th March 2018.

2 Dear Masters Welcome to the 30th year of the Kandahar British Masters which we are delighted to be working once again with Châtel. This year s dates are 16th to 18th March Our 3 day race programme will include a challenging Super G on Friday, a two run Slalom on Saturday and the popular GS on Sunday. The race and slope team of Châtel are all primed up as they are also preparing for the French Championships which follows our event. Therefore, with that knowledge I can guarantee that the dedicated La Linga race slope will be in pristine condition for our K Masters races. The snow report status remains excellent as conditions are fantastic due to the cold weather being quite persistent. We hope the weather God s will look favourably to us in Châtel so that March will bring us slightly warmer temperatures for us to race in. All what remains is for me to say is to stay healthy, keep training, chose the right wax and get yourselves to Châtel where we will be waiting for you. With my best wishes, Filippo Guerrini-Maraldi President British Kandahar Masters -Chatel 2018 Filippo Guerrini-Maraldi President of the Organising Committee Page! 2 of! 7
