Killington hosts 11th annual Slash & Berm Grom Slalom

Sunday, March 2, at 8 a.m.—KILLINGTON—Young snowboarders will have their chance to take on Killington’s creative terrain as the 11th annual Slash & Berm Grom Slalom returns to the Li’l Stash terrain park on Sunday, March 2. Hosted by Killington Resort, Darkside Snowboards, and Burton, the event brings together riders ages 13 and under for a banked slalom competition designed to highlight speed, skill, and style—all while benefiting Wings for Life, a nonprofit dedicated to spinal cord injury research.

A competition with a twist

New for this year, organizers are introducing a “Best Outfit of the Day” prize, encouraging competitors to bring their most eye-catching race suits or creative costumes to the slopes. Riders will also get four runs through the course, with rankings determined by the combined time of their two fastest runs.

Divisions

Grom Boys & Girls: Ages 10-13

Super Grom Boys & Girls: Ages 9 & under

Registration & Check-in

Participants must check in at Ramshead Base Lodge (3rd floor) between 8- 9:30 a.m. on race day to receive their bibs and confirm their spots. No registrations will be accepted after 9:30 a.m.

Lift ticket information

While competitors are not required to have a lift ticket or season pass to participate, a $70 competitor lift ticket will be available for purchase on Sunday for those who prefer not to hike up to Li’l Stash.

Parental waiver

All participants must have a parent or guardian complete an Express Assumption of Risk form in advance.

How to register

Online registration is now open, and spots are expected to fill quickly. If space allows, day-of registration will be available from 8-9:30 a.m. at Ramshead Base Lodge, with credit/debit payment only.
