The Drifters is ideal for those transitioning from Banditos or intermediate riders ready for the next level. The Drifters work on the same fundamentals as the Nomads and Mavericks, but with the main focus on developing lifelong skills and friendships. Competing in races or events is not required, but highly encouraged. There are events for all levels and ability including Enduro, Super D, Downhill, and some dual slalom events. For the more serious Drifters athlete who wants to pursue this sport and eventually join Nomads or Mavericks, there will be separations within Drifters to accommodate you.
