Day 1
**Mini Groms, Groms, and Youth were assigned time penalties for missed gates.
Snowboarders, this one is for you! We are stoked to welcome back the Dirty Dancer Banked Slalom.
Get back to your snowboarding roots with the Dirty Dancer Banked Slalom, a throwback to the ’80s when snowboarders were the outlaws of the wild west, banned from most ski resorts and forced to fight for the right to shred! Well, times have changed, and we want you to celebrate by entering this awesome event for all ages.
Participants will get inspection and practice time each day and get one timed run on Saturday and a second on Sunday. The best time over the two days counts towards the podium! If you don’t podium, we will have lots of draw prizes from our sponsors, so there will be plenty of chances to win something!
NEW Course Location for 2023! We are moving. The new course will go from the 80% road down to Ballet and finish just before the Bear’s Den!
This year, join us in the Griz Bar on Saturday night for the Banked Slalom Rocks Party featuring live music from Lazer Wolf and The Runs!
