Chamonix no longer to host the Boss des Bosses

Although Chamonix opens its first lifts this weekend, the season may as well be over for fans of the seasonaire extravaganza - the Boss des Bossses, as the Compagnie du Mont Blanc have announced they are no longer to host the event.

The Boss des Bosses is one Europe's biggest inter-resort moguls contest and a festival of skiing, snowboarding and telemarking that brings together some of the finest mogul skiiers from Europe's top alpine resorts.
It has been key event of the season for both locals and seasonaires for 21 years now.

Confirmation came from Michel Royboz, Commercial Director of the Compagnie du Mont Blanc;

'I can confirm that the Directors committee have decided to no longer host the Boss des Bosses in Chamonix following the behaviour of the participants and an ongoing dispute with the organiser."

Be sure to check back soon for future developments on this event.
