Last Laps, Best Laps: The Long Weekend Send-Off at Thredbo
Posted on 22 Apr, 2026
The final long weekend of the season is here, and we’re not easing out quietly!
With lifts spinning right through to the end of the day Monday 27th, it’s your last chance to squeeze every ounce out of the season.

Let’s be honest, last laps are always the best laps.
Maxxis Chainless Champs: Chaos Meets Speed
Sunday the 26th brings one of the most iconic (and slightly unhinged) events of the season: Maxxis Chainless Champs.

No chain. No pedalling. No excuses!
It’s all about gravity, guts, and picking the fastest line down the hill. Whether you’re racing for glory or just here for the spectacle, this is as good as it gets. Expect flat-out runs, questionable fancy dress decisions, and a crowd that’s just as rowdy as the riders.

Prizes are up for grabs for both speed and style – so go fast, go wild, or ideally, both.
The Final Send-Off
Once the racing wraps, we’re turning things up a notch for the official season send-off.
Head to the Pub Deck on Sunday night where DJ Fin will be spinning into the evening, bringing the kind of dancefloor energy that only a closing party can deliver.

This is your moment to celebrate a season well ridden.
Back It Up
If you’re not done yet (good for you), the lifts will still be spinning for anyone ready to back it up on Sunday!

Monday is for the diehards – the legs might be cooked but the stoke will be high.
We’re sure you’ll see plenty of familiar faces making the most of those last few laps.
