Text 28 Jan 1 note The Freeride Team Talk Banzai!!

The Freeride Team are getting fired up for the All The Way Banzai this weekend! Trout, Rose, Casey and A-Bomb give us their take on the Banzai….

“The banzai is a intense race. Full speed, natural terrain and four people racing at a time. Always some good excitement and good crashes.” -Trout

“The Banzai is an intense adrenaline race from the top of the mountain to the bottom. There are gates set up along the way down with heats of four people, first one down wins! It’s always a great time getting your heart pumping and trying to go as fast as you possibly can, while beating or passing everyone. Come out snowboarders, skiers, men, women & lets Banzai! Besides the race being a blast, Daron Rahlves has to be one of the nicest guys I’ve ever met!” - Rose

“If you like adrenaline the Banzai tour is for you. From competing, to spectating your stomach will turn. Technical terrain and high speeds are what Banzai is all about! It’s an amazing event and I really appreciate Daron for bringing such a great tour to our community. Register and get involved, you will not regret it!” - Casey

“Banzai is a wild event that combines overall big mountain riding with racing skills. It’s a little luck, a lot of skills and being in the right place at the right time to take advantage of the situations that occur at high speeds. It’s a awesome spectator event cause there’s guarantee there will be crashes, spills, high speed passing and just an overall good time. Come on out and enjoy the show!!!” - A-Bomb

About the Banzai Tour

The Rahlves’ Banzai Tour is the world’s premier big mountain freeski meets ski / boarder-cross event on the planet! Taking place at four Lake Tahoe, CA resorts it’s head to head action four at a time, top to bottom, down a wide open course over natural terrain and snow conditions. This is the ultimate test of ski and riding skills. Open entry for 18 years old and up gives a chance to take part in the fun and find out what you are made of. A solo timed qualifying run on Saturday ranks the Top 32 men ski / board and Top 16 women ski / board to Sunday’s finals. The finals match up four competitors at a time with the top two in each round advancing through the brackets until the remaining four battle it out for the podium and the Rahlves’ Banzai win. It’s racing in it’s purest form.

See you Saturday!
