Tried Dogtags? Worked well for me and others over the years, feel lucky I've not needed it mind 😉

try the BMC's insurance - it's not just for climbers and it's the only one i use now. fair terms, giood vfm and well-backed for alpine activity.

I used snowcard, but never had to claim - I did a bit of research and apparently they are good about paying out though. If you want to [i]actually[/i] be insured, and [i]actually[/i] get the money if needed, I don't think it's going to be that cheap - downhill mountain biking competition is pretty high risk for injuries.

I was fully insured with SnowCard for all the Megas I have competed in (the correct level for Mountain Bike, then the add on for DH racing IIRC)

I smashed my hand up once and they paid without a peep; sent the claim form and I got a cheque. Simple as that.

I used SnowCard too. Never had to claim (luckily), but I'd heard good things about them
