Replay: 2011 Kokanee Crankworx Ultimate Pump Track Challenge 5

Mitch Ropelato and Jill Kintner pump their way to repeat wins at the RockShox Pump Track Challenge.


Full results available here.



It's all about speed, flow and flair. The event is open to the first 60 pro men and 25 pro women who register. A time trial event will establish a finals field of 32 men and 8 women. The finals will be the ultimate "mano-a-mano" battle with a bell ring and knuckle-knock start, riders will drop chasing each other on a 20-second course chock full of berms, doubles and gaps. We'll have a $500 cash grab pot for the best antics dropped randomly through the night plus the winning male and female will each go home with $1000 cash.


Format:

• Dual heat formats with single elimination ladders (seeded by morning time trials)

• Riders start going off opposite sides of center start platform

• Lefts or Rights choice of riders – if not in agreement, coin toss by the referee

• Start Procedure/ Face Off – feet on ground, hands off bars. Starter confirms riders ready to pump, bell rings & riders touch knuckles then drop onto course

• Finish – first one back to platform after one full lap (electronic eye results to call first rider back to finish platform)
