Bring the banter. Bring the speed. Bring the good times!
This is grassroots racing at its finest, with four adrenaline-fuelled rounds taking over the mountain. Riders will battle for series points across a handpicked lineup of gravity-fed trails.
But it’s not all about the podium. These races are about progressive tracks, good times and building confidence, whether you’re chasing seconds or just chasing the stoke. With multiple race categories and series titles up for grabs, there’s also a massive $50,000 pool of cash and prizes on the line.
Stick around when the racing wraps up for the banter, laughs and podium celebrations.

Round #1 | Specialized Sidewinder Showdown
Get ready to tackle tight turns, charge through the straights and send it at the Specialized Sidewinder Showdown. This fast and varied course has a bit of everything, winding through the outer reaches of the resort before bringing riders back to the VT base area.
Round #2 | Oakley Cruiser Crusher
Starting at the top of the Cruiser Chairlift, riders will charge down Paparazzi and Slayground before racing back to the base of the Cruiser Area.
Don’t let the short course fool you. The Oakley Cruiser Crusher is a fast, relentless test of fitness and endurance, with barely a moment to catch your breath. No rest, no let-up…just full gas from top to bottom.
Round #3 | SRAM Supertrail Scramble
It’s time for all out speed as we mix up some of the best sections of track on the mountain. Tackle the easier sections of the Cannonball DH combined with the Kosciuszko Flow. A hit race amongst competitors, the SRAM Supertrail Scramble offers major bragging rights amongst family and friends.
Round #4 | Maxxis Chainless Champs
Combining fun and competition, the Maxxis Chainless Champs challenges racers to tackle the course without a chain, relying on skillful pumping and speed to navigate Centre Link and the lower Kosciuszko Flow, and then finishing back at VT. With crucial points on the line, expect lively banter and tactical moves as racers compete for the overall series title!
