What it's for

The Pre-race checklist is the organiser's own list of what must be true before the first start. It has fifteen items in four groups — Setup (4), Entries (4), Course & timing (4) and Safety (3) — and is saved per race. The Race day side menu shows the count beside the door, for example 12 / 15, and the TD sees the same list from their side.

Nothing on it is ticked for you and nothing is gated by it: it is a list, not a lock.

Before you start

  • The race picked under ACTIVE RACE.

Steps

  1. Press 5 Race day. The step opens on Pre-race checklist.
    Fifteen items in four groups, with a progress bar
    The Pre-race checklist
  2. Press an item to tick it; press again to untick. Tick all and Clear all under PROGRESS do the whole list.
  3. Press Save. The header reads N of 15 complete and CHECKLIST INCOMPLETE until every item is ticked.
  4. Press ⧉ Copy to other races to carry the ticks to the event's other races, and 🖨 Print PDF for a paper copy.

The items, as the screen lists them:

  • Setup — Venue & dates confirmed with the resort · Race sanctioned / on the FIS calendar · Jury appointed (TD, Referee, Chief of Race) · Race Notice drafted & published
  • Entries — Entries open & entry form distributed · Entry deadline set and communicated · Quota & special-seat checks run · Team Captains' Meeting scheduled
  • Course & timing — Course set & gates checked · Timing equipment tested (photocells + backup) · Live timing & QR link verified · Bibs allocated & start list printed
  • Safety — Medical / ski patrol on station · Weather & snow-safety check complete · Volunteer & gatekeeper briefing held

What success looks like

The header reads 15 of 15 complete and the Pre-race checklist door on the side menu reads 15 / 15 for the race you picked.

If something goes wrong

  • The count on the door does not change: you ticked without pressing Save, or the door counts another race — check ACTIVE RACE.
