The Fox US Open of Mountain Biking will once again return to Killington Resort from September 26-29. Professional and amateur athletes from around the world will compete in the Open Class Downhill for one of the largest cash purses in racing, and as always, the Fox US Open also offers amateur racing classes in Downhill and Dual Slalom.
The US Open Downhill race will remain true to its heritage as an open class event that gives up-and-coming racers the chance to compete against the pros and will again be included in the US Downhill National Series. Racers age 14 & under will also have their shot in the Next Gen Youth Downhill event, which offers categories for intermediate and expert racers.
The USO Adaptive Downhill will also return with support from Vermont Adaptive & will feature top invited athletes competing on the main downhill track on Goat Skull.
Back by popular demand will be the USO Best Whip, taking place on a massive set of jumps carved into the base area of the bike park for a premier viewing experience. This invitational competition is a crowd-favorite and a must-see.
Spectating is FREE, and approved areas of the bike park are open to the public during the event (access up the Ramshead chairlift for spectators will be available for purchase). Join the party and experience epic competition, spectating, and riding with friends!
