It’s time to get back to racing, as the 2025 season of ‘Monster Energy Pro Downhill Series presented by Continental Tires’ heads west. Host, Lars Tribus sits down with General Manager, Clay Harper, for a recap of the incredibly tight racing from Round 2 at Mountain Creek, where series leaders Gwin and Skelton earned P1 on the day, both rocking the lucky No.7 plates.
A new venue is on-deck with Round 3 at Solitude Mountain Resort in Utah, July 24 - 27, 2025 and the community is rallying behind the #USDH return to the mountain-west Rockies region. From there it’s off to Big Bear Lake, CA, July 31 - August 3, where Round 4 of the series will host the US National Championships for Downhill and Dual Slalom. Lot’s to unpack on this one, as Justin Evans from USA Cycling calls-in to review the rule book and break down different scenarios for racer eligibility and placement. Let’s go racing!
