LifeProof Step Up 8 Riders
In this Final-only format, each of the eight riders line up 30 feet from a near vertical wall of dirt and have
two attempts to clear the Step Up bar at each height. If a rider knocks the bar to the ground in the first
attempt, that rider has one additional chance to clear the bar at that height or be eliminated. After each
round, the bar is raised in increments determined by the competition director, and the entire process is
repeated until one winner is determined.
