Winning Times

wicked fast

Courses

Sat: Beginner (White) / Advanced (Orange) / Expert Short (Green) / Expert Long (Blue)
Sun: Beginner (White) / Tournament (1.5-3km each round, about 8k for all four)

Sunday is a sprint tournament format, with four rounds of short sprint courses, 1.5 to 3km each. Everyone races all four rounds, and an overly complicated bracket system figures out who wins! The course difficulty is appropriate for everyone.

Timing

All races will be timed with SIAir Touchless punching. If you do not have one, a loaner will be provided as long as you register by Feb 27th. After that you may be given a regular (not-touchless) SI stick if no touchless ones are available.

Embargoed Areas

None.

Trash Talking

On the attackpoint event page.

Registration

Register by Feb 27th to guarantee a loaner touchless timing chip! After that you may have to use a boring regular timing chip.
