Perhaps Birkie Week’s most fun event, the Birkie Giant Ski Race features teams of six skiers competing in a thrilling race – all attached to a single pair of giant skis. Giant Ski Racers compete in heats in hopes of advancing to the Giant Ski Finals, all held on Main Street in Hayward, WI, on Thursday, February 20, 2025. Grab friends and family and give it a try. Giant skis are provided to each team at the start, and the event is limited to 30 teams. See you on the (giant) start line! #Birkie2025
