2024 UCI Snow Bike World Championships - 🇫🇷 Châtel (FRA)

7-8/2/2025

2025 UCI Snow Bike World Championships in Châtel (FRA)

 

The Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) is pleased to announce that the second edition of the UCI Snow Bike World Championships will take place on 10 and 11 February 2024 in Châtel, Haute-Savoie (France).

Two competition formats on snow, inspired by alpine skiing, will be on the programme for this edition of the event: super-G and dual slalom.

The Super-G races will take place over a single run on a slope with a vertical drop of between 350 and 650 metres depending on the route chosen. The distance between the gates will be around 20-25 metres, as in alpine skiing. The racers will start one by one at regular intervals.

The dual slalom (comparable to the parallel slalom in snowboard and alpine skiing) is an event made up of a series of elimination races in which two riders go head-to-head on two parallel slalom courses. They compete against each other in two heats, switching courses for the second heat. The rider with the fastest combined time advances to the next round of the competition. The courses will take approximately 30 seconds to descend.

These two competition formats will be held on downhill mountain bikes and will be open to all riders holding a licence from a UCI-affiliated National Federation.

Further information on the technical details of the competitions will be published on the UCI website in due course.
