Racing Competitions
Dry Slope Competitions
Dry slope ski racing caters for all abilities, from almost complete beginners to international standard racers. Each racer has to register with Snow Sport England and is given a membership number so they can enter races.
Racers are awarded seed points once they start racing and this informs them of their national ranking (the lower the number then better you are – top racers have 0 points). Many of our Pendle skiers are ranked highly.
Summer and winter race leagues
For those who want to try out racing for the first time, summer and winter race leagues are held at the club and surrounding venue. These are open to anyone and are great fun Club Nationals
Club Nationals
Club National events held are all over the country (May – October). Races consist of two morning runs, with the best time being added to the time of the third run after lunch. Racers compete in age categories.
Grand Prix Events
For those ranked 250 and above, racers can enter the Grand Prix race series. These events comprise of two runs down different courses, with the times added together. Each year there are five Grand Prix, with racers achieving points for good results. The overall winners each year are often given sponsorship for the next year.
