Kitzbühel Country Club members and friends were invited to an evening filled with insights and stories from two ski legends: Daron Rahlves, former US Ski Team member and winner of the Hahnenkamm, as well as Chris Anthony, Colorado Hall of Fame inductee. Daron Rahlves, winner of 2003 and 2004 Hahnenkamm races shared stories of his professional ski career and what it meant to him to win the Streif. The presentation then featured some of Chris Anthony’s most impressive performances skiing on film from all around the globe and the lessons he has learned from these exceptional experiences.

The 78th Hahnenkamm Experience was a true success and week to never forget for all involved. Resulting from a special collaboration and idea by Chris Anthony and Sophie Hofmann, this one of a kind Hahnenkamm Experience was created for the genuine cause of helping children under the Chris Anthony Youth Initiative Project. Created through lifelong relationships and generous donations, the Hahnenkamm Experience package came to life and found two very deserving guests to attend the week filled with excitement and views of incredible sportsmanship.  All involved left with many memories on and off the mountain – of an incredible race, new friends made, and a lack of sleep.

Sophie of Team Hx worked closely together with Chris Anthony to create “Inspire 5: Kitzbühel in Colorado” benefitting the Chris Anthony Youth Initiative Project. The evening featured the movie ‘Streif: One Hell of a Ride’ and a very special visit from professional world cup skiers, Daron Rahlves and AJ Kitt, as well as an exciting live auction. One of the highlights of the auction was the 78^th Hahnenkamm Experience, put together and supported by many local Kitzbühel organisations such as the Kitzbühel Country Club, Kitzbühel Tourismus, Hotel Rasmushof and Element 3 sportshops.
