Osprey Ricochet Rumble | 16 December
The Ricochet Rumble is first up with racers looking to get some early season points in the bank. Utilising Ricochet, this event is your chance to turn up the speed dial and push the limits on a super flowy and fast racecourse.

Rockshox Pump Track Party | 16 December
Momentum is key as racers generate as much speed as possible without a single pedal stroke. From the start mound you will be unweighting through a series of perfectly placed rollers and berms. The fastest lap time will see you take the honours at this crowd-pleasing event.

Crankbrothers Cruiser Crusher | 3 February
A slightly new event to the Gravity Series, the Cruiser Crusher will see a brand-new racecourse utilising Paparazzi into the Lower All-Mountain with the race finishing at the base of the Cruiser Chairlift.

Oakley Supertrail Scramble | 23 March
It’s Cannonball time folks! Taking on the easier sections of the Cannonball DH with a mix of the Kosciuszko Flow, this racecourse is hugely popular among many and brings with it some huge bragging rights.

Maxxis Chainless Champs | 27 April
It’s time to go chainless for the final round of the series! The Chainless Champs will see all competitors remove their chain before pumping and holding speed down Centre Link to lower Kosciuszko Flow. With overall points on the line, expect banter from the sidelines and tactics to determine who will come out as the series champion!
