The FIS Roller Ski Asian Cup is a first ever regional series of competitions in roller skiing.
Asian countries have decided to organize such starts to develop skiing also in such regions where there is no snow. The idea was supported by the FIS.
At the spring meeting in Vilamoura, Portugal in May 2025, the FIS Roller Ski Asian Cup was approved by the FIS Roller Ski Sub Committee, FIS World Cup & Continental Cup Committee and the FIS Cross-Country Skiing Committee.
The first season of the FIS Roller Ski Asian Cup was successfully held in 2025.
More than 240 athletes from 12 countries participated in three stages. Competitors from 8 nations (95 men and 71 women) earned Asian Cup points. Athletes from 6 nations (23 men and 16 women) won medals in individual races.
Here is a report on the past season.
