Round 3 - 2010 Diablo Gravity Series this weekend!
Season Passholders save up to 45% on race fees!
*DH Course Route*: The downhill course for this weekend will take place beginning on Retreat then branching briefly onto Asylum before traversing over to Waterboy. The course will then connect with Victory to Frogpond and some new wide-open grass turns to the finish!
Whether you are a seasoned race veteran or a newcomer to the sport of downhill racing, the Diablo Gravity Series is grass roots racing at its funnest!
The Giant Slalom will take place this Saturday and this discipline is an excellent opportunity for riders looking to try gravity racing on a unique and fun slalom course that is not as technically demanding as our downhill courses. Prizes are awarded to the top 3 racers in each category!
On Sunday, the Downhill discipline will take place and racers will tackle the technical terrain of Monarch, Legion and Frog Pond.
Not interested in racing? Have no fear! Diablo Freeride Park is ALWAYS open during event weekends and the race courses are designed to have very little impact on the rest of the trail network. Most trails, including popular lines such as Dominion, Alpine, Greenhorn, among many others remain open and un-interupted!
Diablo is the place to be this weekend! See you on Saturday!
