The Zermatt Mini-Masters competition was an invitational carving event held in February of 2008 at the Zermatt resort in Park City, Utah. It was called the Mini-Masters competition because it was scaled down from an originally planned larger event. The competitors were Aaron Costic, Ben Rand, Dan Rebholz, and Dawson List (author of this site). The competition consisted of a series of speed carving events that pitted one competitor against another to arrive at a final champion. The judging was done by the spectators, which made for some interesting results and even more interesting tactics.
