Three Friday Nights, One Series: Killington’s Full Send Fridays Season

Full Send Fridays Season Registration puts three high-stakes MTB races into a single summer pass at Killington Ski Resort in Killington, Vermont. Sign up once to commit to Downhill on June 19, Enduro on July 24, and Dual Slalom on August 21 — a compact circuit that rewards consistency, speed, and a taste for gravity-fed terrain. The series runs Friday afternoons, with check-in windows at Goat Skull and Ramshead depending on the event, and a race-day atmosphere that turns ski trails into technical, dug-in bike tracks.

The race venues highlight Killington’s raw mountain terrain: steep fall-line pitches, machine-built bike park features, tree-lined woods, and occasional bedrock outcrops shaped by the Green Mountains’ glacial history. Downhill racers start near Goat Skull, attacking high-speed berms and rock-strewn sections; Enduro spreads riders across timed stages that mix climb transfers and ripping descents; Dual Slalom converts the Ramshead base into a tight, head-to-head sprint arena where line choice and nerve decide winners.

What sets this series apart is Killington’s lift-access infrastructure and a community-first format. Riders of many ages and abilities can chase points at each monthly event, collecting podium honors and series standings that culminate at the finale. Logistics are straightforward: all racers must wear helmets during practice and race runs, possess a valid lift ticket or season pass to access trails, and acknowledge that e-bikes are not permitted. Check-in procedures are clearly scheduled — Downhill and Dual Slalom windows are listed in the registration details — and timing chips and number plates are issued on site.

Expect variable trail conditions: early summer loam and dust can give way to polished rock and exposed roots after storms. Bring spare tubes, a compact pump, patch kit and a basic toolset; on-site mechanics are convenient but not guaranteed. Pit crews and spectators converge at the base for post-race food trucks, awards and results, transforming each Friday into a social race day that draws regional riders and families and keeps the Killington bike community energized.

Beyond the competition, the resort sits within northern hardwood forest that yields classic Vermont views: ridgelines, oak and birch stands, and expansive sky on clear days. Spectators will find accessible vantage points at Ramshead and lower lift lines, while racers benefit from on-mountain facilities and rapid medical response typical of an established ski resort turned summer bike park.

Whether you’re chasing podiums, sharpening your technical skills, or simply feeding an appetite for speed, the Full Send Fridays series compresses a season’s worth of racing into three concentrated Fridays. Full-season registration closes on June 12 at 4:00 p.m.; register early to secure your place, read the waiver in your confirmation email, and prepare for three afternoons of earnest racing under Vermont skies.
