Inspiring the next champions

We are the only organiser that puts on this kind of event for riders from 8 yr old Rippers to 16 yr old Junior level too come along and enjoy a that big race atmosphere without the pressure of the bigger events, there’s no older and faster riders around them. We specifically limit any faster riders from entering allowing these younger ones extra track time and space if needed . Everyone is allowed space to gain confidence.Gaining a reputation for investing in the riders, Gravity firmly believes these riders are the next upcoming champions and need this pathway to progress and gain confidence.

These events provide a unique opportunity for young rippers to learn and race simultaneously. These races take place over one or two days , and are push up type race on slightly smaller tracks with smaller features. Before hitting the track, we prioritize safety and education with a mandatory Rider Briefing.

 The rider brief is conducted about 9am each day, We explain the format for the day, track guidelines, Rider saftey and the flag system along with lots of other vital information. We want our young riders to fully understand the rules and regulations, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience.

Our dedicated team of race Marshals closely supervise the riders, guaranteeing their well-being throughout the event. We even encourage parents to participate, as we provide guidance on where to be on the hillside and how to navigate the race format. This creates a supportive and nurturing environment for our young riders, free from any pressures.

After the briefing its down to business, Moring is practice until lunchtime, A short break and then its the first of 2 timed race runs. Just the same as normal DH races. Best run counts and then its Podiums . If its a 2 day event we do it all again the next day so they get the chance to race Twice in a weekend which also keeps the costs down for parents. There’s free camping Friday and Saturday at all our mini races aswell .

It’s all explained in a friendly and relaxed way and if you have any other questions just ask away!, we give the little ones space so their confidence grows and there’s no pressure. Just ask someone who’s raced these before.
