So there’s no time to be really pondering anything.”
This year, the Winter Dew Tour added brand new events and disciplines designed specifically to showcase the strongest female athletes in their fields.
“Women are no strangers to the Dew Tour as an integral part of the foundation that make up our event’s heart and soul since the event’s inception,” Courtney Gresik, the vice president and general manager of Dew Tour, said in a press release before the competition kicked off on Thursday, February 6. “We are immensely proud to elevate our event to the next level this year with the addition of four new disciplines for these extremely talented women and have no doubt that they will put on an exciting show for the fans as they have always done.”
