Event Formats
Time Trial

Head to Head Races
Based on the time trial, participants will be seeded into groups of similar standard. Within those groups, participants will race again head to head over the same distance.
Team Event
Based on the original time trial, participants will be placed into teams within categories. The format will be finalised closer to the event day.
Equipment
The intention is to supply all participants with the same rollerskis (SWIX Triac Skates). Just in case, participants should be prepared to supply their own rollerskis for the events. Juniors or novice skiers can opt to use their own rollerskis if they need additional stability.
Registration
All competitors must have a current Snow Australia membership of any category (including Snowracer).

Entries can be made on the day, however to assist with race organisation participants are asked to enter by the Wednesday before the race if possible.
