Designed for riders of all experience levels, the Full Send Fridays series offers an approachable entry point for first-time racers alongside a competitive platform for seasoned athletes. Whether lining up for a first race or continuing a full season of competition, the series creates opportunities to build confidence, gain experience, and push performance. With three distinct events, riders can choose to compete in a single race or take on the full series to accumulate points and compete for overall standings.

The Full Send Fridays series will kick off with an adrenaline-filled Downhill race. This fast-paced event challenges riders to race the clock down a technical course featuring jumps, rocks, berms, and classic gravity-fed terrain designed to test both skill and confidence. 

From explosive starts to high-speed finishes, every second counts as riders push their limits on a course built for progression and flow. Whether you are chasing a podium or just looking to test your speed against the clock, this is your chance to go all-in, set the tone for the series, and start stacking points toward the overall standings.

Thank you to our valued series sponsors, First Stop Board Barn, Darkside Snowboards, and Base Camp, whose support helps power the series and provide podium prizes throughout the season.
