Mountainboarding is a tiny sport, but with a strong community of passionate riders. Despite that, regular boardercross сhampionships started only six years ago. The organizers of each event acted independently, so the results were presented in a non-standardized form, and I had to spend some time aggregating data. Based on that information, I made some charts and theses which may be found interesting.

148 riders participated 452 times in 6 championships

Serbia hosted championships 3 times — 50% of all times

France and Slovenia were the most participated championships — 88 riders took part in each one
