California Mothership Classic 3/22

The Mothership Classic

Born from a partnership between Arcade Belts and the High Fives Foundation, the Mothership Classic is a full-throttle Shred-A-Thon fueled by laps, community, and purpose. Every year, locals and diehards gather on KT-22 to chase bell-to-bell laps, rock ridiculous costumes, and throw down for #HighFivesAthletes.

This isn’t just another ski day — it’s a challenge, a celebration, and a whole lot of fun wrapped into one unforgettable on-snow experience.


How It Works

Build a Team. Rally Your Crew. Shred Hard.
Create or join a team and start fundraising. The Mothership Classic is pledge-driven, meaning the more you raise, the more perks, prizes, and bragging rights you unlock. Name your team something outrageous and get after it.

Fundraise $200+ to Unlock the Full Experience
Once you hit $200, you’re officially cleared for launch. Think NASCAR-style sponsorship: hype the mission, phone a friend, and stack those pledges.

Your fundraising unlocks:

  • Discounted lift ticket
  • A stacked swag box loaded with premium gear
  • Lunch on event day
  • Entry into all challenges and awards
  • Access to the après party, awards, and celebration

Raise more → win more. That’s the game.


Event Day Vibes

It’s bell-to-bell laps on KT-22, nonstop energy, and friendly competition from first chair to last call. Track your laps, cruise through the vendor village, tackle pop-up challenges, and ski or ride until your legs say otherwise. Costumes? Highly encouraged.
