This year, a kind of equal opportunity for all triumphs. This is because the organizers are offering the winner of the women's and men's classes in 2009 the chance to win a heliflight. There are also two more heli-flight tickets up for grabs - for the two Lucky Bikers, which will be drawn from the field of participants. The classification of the two raffled race participants is irrelevant.

In the midst of the fantastic panorama of Zermatt, it is a special feeling even for the hard-boiled downhillers to be here. The bikers are surrounded by 38 mountains that tower 4,000 meters or higher into the sky. And they have the unique opportunity to show off their downhill skills on a perfectly groomed ski slope. The world-renowned summer and winter holiday resort of Zermatt will therefore once again experience a flexing heart-pounding weekend. This applies to the bikers as well as the enthusiastic organizers, supervisors, guests and spectators.
