HOW OLD DO I HAVE TO BE TO ENTER?
Minimum age is 13, calculated as of the race day. Riders under the age of 18 will need to have a waiver signed by a parent/guardian and should contact the Registration Coordinator to make advance arrangements.
CAN U.S. AND INTERNATIONAL CITIZENS RACE?
There are no restrictions.
DO I NEED A LICENSE?
Only the UCI PRO GRT Downhill requires a license. Please reference the technical guide for more information.
With the exception of the DH race, none of the races or competitions are sanctioned and therefore USA Cycling or UCI licenses are not required. Likewise, the USA Cycling and UCI race license insurance coverage will not be effective.
DO I HAVE TO BE A PRO?
Both pro and amateur categories are offered for all competitions (except Slopestyle). Athletes can select to register either as an Amateur (Junior, Senior or Master as applicable) or a Pro (no age classes).
IS THERE ONSITE REGISTRATION?
Space permitting, onsite registration will be available. No day-of registration will be offered, only check-in for pre-registered competitors. Advance registration is strongly recommended as there are caps on many events.
DO I NEED A LIFT TICKET?
Lift tickets are required to access the start of the DH, and SDH courses. Discounted lift tickets for both official training days and race days will be available at Athlete Registration. Tickets must be purchased at the time of registration.
The Dual Slalom and Slopestyle courses are located at the base of the mountain, so lift tickets are not required for these events.
Discounted Rates, valid any two days from 7/28 - 8/1:
▪ 2 days for $39
▪ 3 days for $49
▪ 4 days for $59
▪ 5 days for $69
