This weekend: FS Supersprint for all ages
Last Updated: 24.Feb.2015
Join us for a new event for Craftsbury: the freestyle Supersprint for all ages! In this format, there's a short qualifier starting at noon, then ALL racers are seeded into a bracket for heats. After that, you advance as follows:
- top 2 - up a bracket
- next 2 - stay in the same bracket
- bottom 2 - drop a bracket
Regardless you're NOT eliminated - everyone races all the way through the rounds. Click thru to see results from a race like this run in Canmore, AB this fall to help visualize the process, or head over here for a video example from the race that inspired all the fun - and we have a custom poster from the big Q to encourage your friends to join the fun.
Qualifier: Short, freestyle loop on COC trails (~0.5km) 15-sec Interval-Start, 12:00 noon
Super Sprint heats: Twists, bumps, jumps, obstacles on a short, fun, "built" freestyle course (0.5km). Round 1 starts at 1:00pm (skiers seeded in waves of 6); about a minute between wave starts. Rounds will run about 15 minutes a round, with awards to follow the last round.
