Join us for our next, awesome Halfpipe event at Mt Bachelor / Woodward Bachelor…and did you know that our events are for all ages and stages of riding abilities; and also the reason we provide 9 & under and adaptive FREE event entry…to encourage and inspire younger riders to participate (membership req’d)! Prizes for EVERY competitor; Awards for 1st – 3rd. Save $ on events by registering online before NOON the Friday before that weekend’s comps…see below for more details! USASA Halfpipe 3 on Sat, USASA Rail Jams 2 & 3 on Sunday.
USASA’s Core Values: Excellence – Respect – Fun
WHO NEEDS TO CHECK IN BESIDES COMPETITORS? ALL media, coaches, judges and volunteers must sign in at registration (esp anyone wanting access to be on course – which we limit for safety/liability reasons). You must sign-in AND sign necessary waivers if not a current USASA Member/Coach/Judge/Official already, AS WELL AS sign a Mt. Bachelor waiver (unless you have a current Mt. Bachelor Season Pass).
Halfpipe events are located in the Events Arena (skier’s right/looker’s left) of the Pine Marten lift (you can usually see the pipe from the lodge), and registration/check-in will be at the main lodge (West Village Lodge), usually downstairs in the Caldera area (look for signage because it’s sometimes upstairs…so keep up via our Facebook Events by clicking “Going.”
> EVENT COST: $30 online per event. $35 day-of (non-refundable), 9 & under & adaptive FREE! (Membership req’d & must be done online). If you’re trying to qualify for USASA Nationals from our series, you need to do at least 2 of 3 of our events for Halfpipe, Slopestyle and/or Rail Jam, and it’s your best 2 of 3 for each discipline. This also determines our Regional Champs, so doing more comps can make the difference! Also, 3 scores are used for USASA National’s qualifications.
> REGISTRATION ONLINE ONLY this year + you’ll also save $ per event + a faster Check-in line: https://cos.usasa.org/ ONLINE REGISTRATION CLOSES at 12:00 pm (NOON) the FRIDAY before that weekend’s events.
> Check-in and Day-of Registration from 8 am – 9 am ONLY at West Village Lodge (main lodge downstairs), so please keep traffic/weather in mind…and we do get both!
> FLOW of EVENT (see above/below details)
> AWARDS for 1st, 2nd & 3rd place for each age group, and they’ll be approx. 1 hr. after the events (see Team App for day-of updates).
> PRIZES & SWAG giveaway during Award time approx. 30 min. to 1 hr. after event (thousands of dollars of giveaways this season thanks to the below Central Oregon USASA sponsors…and more coming onboard…so go Like and Follow them please)!
> USASA MEMBERSHIP Req’d for all riders and is done ONLINE ONLY: www.USASA.org (7 yrs old & under FREE. 8-9 yrs old $50. 10+ yrs old is $125 and covers the entire season, the opportunity to compete in other USASA comps, as well as USASA Nationals. 1 Day Memberships are $35 and are also done online and based upon limited availability, and do not give you points towards Nationals.)
TAKE NOTE: 18 yrs and older (and/or if turning 18 yrs. old mid-season) must now go through SafeSport per new regulations by the USOC, so 1 day and day-of memberships are NOT available for these riders anymore. This also means new/renewed memberships must also now go through the new process sooner than later (we have had several athletes not be able to compete because of unforeseen things that surfaced that required additional paperwork, turn-around time for background checks, etc.). Please follow all the instructions and get things done and sent promptly if you’re planning to compete. Thanks for adapting to these newer changes. (See below for additional SafeSport details, and again, be sure to follow the steps laid out when becoming a USASA member.)
> COMPETITION INFO: We’ll have Practice/Inspection, Rider’s Meeting, then go into our Heats. Each rider will have 2 runs in their Heat, and it’s the best run that counts. We drop participants according to the Start Lists.
> Mt. Bachelor WAIVERS are included for Central Oregon USASA when you register online for our events.
> DISCOUNTED LIFT TICKETS: Bring your USASA Bib to the ticket counter and you’ll get a “racer ticket” for $69.
> Have questions? Let us know in the comments or message us.

Additional SafeSport Info: The U.S. Center for SafeSport (Center) was created under the law, “Protecting Young Victims from Sexual Abuse and Safe Sport Authorization Act of 2017.” The Center provides education and requirements consistent with the law, and this training is part of those requirements. The training is required by the Center, the USOC, U.S. Ski & Snowboard, and USASA.
How often is the training required? After the initial training, which may take up to about 90 minutes to complete, annual refreshers are required which generally take about 20 minutes to complete.
What happens if the training isn’t completed before and athlete turns 18? The training is required for USASA memberships and to compete. Adult athletes will not be allowed to be on a USASA venue or participate until it is complete. More info can be found at usasa.org.
