New "Super D" Downhill Race

Northstar Resort's NEW Super D race is an endurance downhill race with some flat sections.  These courses are typically longer and not as technical in nature as our Downhill Races - testing both a rider’s endurance and bike handing skills.  We recommend a full suspension mountain bike.
