National Overall Awards/Rankings
Starting at the 2009 Nationals, we will be changing our Overall Awards. We will only have 1 Overall Award and ranking and that will be for riders that do ALL disciplines at Nationals. For snowboarders that means an overall ranking (and award) for those that compete in Halfpipe, SlopeStyle, BoarderCross, Slalom, and GS at Nationals. For skiers it will include Skiercross, Halfpipe and Slopestyle. We will no longer be awarding Overall Freestyle, Overall Alpine or Combined Overall which included Overall Freestyle and Overall Alpine.

Event Registration Pricing for this year will be the same as last year. We wish we could reduce the cost but it just isn't possible. We did our best to not have to raise the price.
1 event: $250
2 events: $275
3 events: $300
4 events: $325
5 events: $350
ALL competitors will get a 7 day lift ticket for Copper. This will allow every competitor to ride every single day of Nationals including the Saturday practice day, all 5 of their competition days and their "day off".
Those that wish to petition for a spot at Nationals due to injury, foreign competitors or other extraordinary circumstances can download the petition form and submit by the deadline of March 6th, 2009 at midnight.
