The 51st Golden Fox, the Slovenian skiing holiday under Pohorje, will this year "come" on February 21 or 22, 2015, when the majority of women will gather in Maribor, together with a bunch of local fans and still under the impression of the world championship in Vail caravan of alpine skiers and competed for the title of Golden Foxes. Among the Slovenian women, this belongs to Mateja Svet, Urška Hrovat and Tina Maze, who will be in the running for the prestigious title again this year. As always, the event will be enriched by a rich accompanying program.
51. The golden fox hopefully it will not share the fate of last year, when the jubilee, 50th performance, had to be hosted in Kranjska Gora - where it takes place in March Vitranc Cup for men, this year for the 53rd time in a row - which turned out to be a grateful host. Although this year's match is threatened by too warm weather and a lack of snow, and the organizers are already impatiently looking at the sky, it seems that, unlike in 2014, it will win this time tireless staff and not nature.

As is usual, the whole weekend will be lively on the slopes, because in addition to the skiers, we will also have a varied accompanying program. The fox title will be defended by a Swede Frida Hansdotter (last year they only performed slalom), who succeeded the best Slovenian skier of all time and the most versatile skier in the world, Tino Maze.
