Banked Slalom
Featuring a course of banked-turns winding down Sugarloaf’s iconic East Coast terrain, the objective of the Sugarloaf Banked Slalom is simple: the fastest rider to the bottom wins in each division. Registration will open for the 14th Annual Sugarloaf Banked Slalom soon.
The Banked Slalom takes place on Sidewinder- looker’s left if you’re riding the SuperQuad. The professionally built course offers creative features and flowy banked turns from the Jean Luce Timing Building all the way to the base.
Spectators can hike up to the finish area or ski/ride down Lower Sheerboom (Directly underneath the Superquad chair, off of Peavy Crosscut). The primary spots will be just above the volcano feature, as well as at the finish line at the end of the pipe.
Bib Pick up will be in the Maple Room of the base lodge 7-9 am. Racers can enter through the Beach and will be given a registration gift, bib, and chip. Lift tickets will be provided for those who purchased one for the race. Course Inspection is from 9-10am and the race starts at 10 am. There will be race times designated for each age category; racers will need to get all their runs in during these time blocks. Results will be based on best-timed run.
An awards ceremony will be held on the Beach after all racers have finished. Prizes will be awarded to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishers in all categories as well as Men’s and Women’s 1st place overall. Overall winners will be removed from their age class.
