Re: Head to Head racing

Thank you. We come to this question every year when we hold our race. Next race, I will discuss with my cohorts for two head-head formats instead of single lane. Head-head in many people's opinions are so much more fun to race and to watch.

Hi Curt,
I'm glad to see some dh-slalom crossover initialization. Will slalom be a prerequisite for dh? Maybe with loaner boards for dh guys who haven't slalomed yet? That seems to be the biggest drawback of dual crossover races.
Is this the same timer as the other Utah races?
