With an extremely tight race for series supremacy coming into the weekend, you can expect to see fireworks during both the Super-D and Enduro finales, for both pro and amateur men and women. Kathy Golebiowski holds a firm lead on the overall for the pro women with 443 points on the season, but 2nd through 4th overall are separated by a mere 29 points. On the men's side of things, Jason Scheiding has taken over the top spot for now, but the entirety of the top 10 remains wide open, especially with Double Points being awarded throughout the weekend! Additionally, both races will serve as the USAC Regional Championship for Super-D and Enduro. Click here for POC ESC Series Standings.


On Saturday, riders will spend the morning taking practice laps on the Super-D and Enduro courses before the start of the Super-D, which will be run as an individual time trial format that afternoon. As always, the POC Eastern States Cup will feature a lofty prize package, with cash prizes being awarded for the weekend's races and overall series standings. On top of that, every amateur winner from Sunday's Enduro plus overall class champions will receive custom WTB Saddles! .


Killington, Vermont has proven itself to be the East Coast's premier all-mountain destination, with almost 2,000 vertical feet of trails and thousands of acres to explore for riders of all levels; but the POC ESC Super-D and Enduro Cup finale promises to utilize some of the longest, fastest and rowdiest of them all! There will be several top-to-bottom runs between the Super-D and Enduro races and all of them will utilize that famous Vermont loam and some of the most creative line choices you'll find anywhere. This is most certainly a mountain you'll want to familiarize yourself with now if you haven't already, as there are bigger and better things on the horizon for Killington! So please join us as we bid farewell to what has been an outstanding season for our Super-D and Enduro series and fret not, we're working already working hard on making next year the best one yet!
