I know it’s probably sacrilege to talk about downhill on here, but I’ll be in snowshoe the same weekend as the Gravity Series races, and I’d like to compete.
Does anyone on here know whether the different classes (Intro/Weekend Warrior/Am/Elite) will compete on different courses? If so, any idea where I might fit best? I’ve done some downhill before (couple days in Whistler), and am pretty confident bombing descents with some jumping/drops, but I’m not into terrain park type stuff or huge drops.
I’m figuring somewhere around “Weekend Warrior,” but if someone who has done one of these races could chime in and shed some light on approximately how different the divisions are and what the course(s) will be like that would be much appreciated. I’m really not trying to die in snowshoe on a mountain bike, but if the “intro” division is filled with 12yo scrubs who have never ridden a MTB, let alone pointed one straight down a mountain then I’ll probably Cat up.
