The Planet Cup was introduced in 2003 as a season-long series recognizing excellence in J 456
racers and will continue again this year. Standings will be kept for SL, GS, and the Combined (K) by
place points. The individual competitor’s best 9 of 14 SL races, and best 10 of 15 GS races in the
respective disciplines will determine the season-long standings. The Combined will be
determined by the individual’s best 19 finishes, regardless of discipline. All Planet Cup
competitors must be members of USSA and Region 1 to receive Planet Cup Points. Planet Cup
races will be Dec.15-16 at Wild, Jan. 5-6 at Spirit, Jan.12-13 at Lutsen, Jan. 19-20 at Wild, Jan. 26-
27 at LaCrosse, Feb 9-10 at Welch, and Feb 16 at Afton. The Kombi races at Buck Hill Dec. 8-9 will
not be scored for the Planet Cup.
Planet Cup standings will be updated weekly, and scored as follows within each age and gender
group for each individual Planet Cup race:
