Race Schedule
Thursday, June 13th
Gates open at 12pm Thursday. NO EARLY ARRIVALS. Security will be on site turning cars around if they arrive early. Downhill Course will be open for Practice with shuttles all afternoon.
Friday, June 14th
Racers will check in early morning and receive a bib and a timing chip followed by an All Racer Meeting. Practice shuttles will be available in the morning, course will close at 11am to prepare for Time Trials. Time trials start at 12pm. Riders will get one chance down the course for a time to qualify for semi-finals. All racers will start their time trial with their registered division, running one at a time with a short gap between each rider’s start.
Once racers finish their time trial they will take their chip to the timing tent to dip it for a printed time. The top 12 fastest times for each division will move onto Semi-Finals Saturday morning. Results and brackets will be displayed on the Race Communication Board by race tent.
Racers have one chance down the track. Reruns will only be granted if a rider comes up on an injured rider down on the course or if there is an issue with the timing on our end. All reruns will be approved by the race directors only.
Saturday, June 15th
Semi Finalists will gather for a racers meeting before practice shuttles start. The order of races will be posted on the communication board along with shuttle times for all divisions. Semi- Finals will start at 12pm.
Semi Finalists are the top 12 time trial times from each division.
Pro, Clydesdale, and Legends divisions will be split into two categories for Semi-Finals and Finals — the top 12 racing ORL qualifying boards for ORL points and the top 12 racing all other board types including remotes. We will have two podiums for these divisions to recognize each category. Please note if we do not have 12 riders to fill each Legends & Clydesdale bracket we will drop down to advancing 6 and 6 from each.
Heats will be divided accordingly:
- Heat 1 consists of 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th, 10th & 12th place from time trials.
- Heat 2 consists of 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th & 11th place.
- The top 3 riders that cross the finish line first in each heat will qualify for FINALS. This is a head to head race. Riders must be on their board as they cross the finish line and finish is defined as when the front of the board crosses the finish line. Any close finishes will be reviewed on video.
The bottom 3 of each heat will head to shuttles and race for 7th-12th place ONLY for PRO, CLYDESDALE & LEGENDS.
This is important for ORL rankings to determine 7th through 12th place. The top 50 riders will receive ORL points — the top 12 will come from your placement in semi-finals and finals, the remaining riders will receive points based on your time trial result.
All racers are expected to check updates on the communication boards throughout the weekend. We will not delay races for late arrivals! If a racer is not at the shuttle for their shuttle time we will pull the alternate (13th place rider) in to fill that open space.
ALL Mountain Endurance Race
Sunday Morning, June 16th
Our All Mountain Race will start in the meadow with a mass start with all devices. This will be a timed race with chips. EUC & All Onewheels including remote will race together. The race will take riders up the shuttle road to the top of the race course, then down back to meadowthrough the features on the course. We want to see who comes out on top!!! All Mountain Divisions being awarded: MEN, WOMEN, GROMS & EUC
NEW Segment Races
Sunday, June 16th
We are excited to introduce a NEW race this year for Shredfest 4. Segment Races will be held on Sunday, this is a FUN race. All will be competing together. We’ve received lots of feedback, people wanting to race ALL board types including remotes. We want to see how you all stack up.
What is a segment race?
It’s very similar to an Enduro. We will choose 3-4 trails on the lower side of the mountain (no shuttles needed). Each segment will have a start gate and finish. Each rider will get a timing chip and race each segment independently for a time. The segments MUST be completed in order that is given, with only one attempt per segment. When you have completed all segments in order, you will return your chip to the tent for your print out of times.
We will award the following divisions for this race. MEN, WOMEN, GROMS, EUC & BEGINNER (Never raced before).
Awards Ceremonies
Downhill Race
Saturday evening before music starts on main stage.
