You'll be more than capable technically if that's what you're already riding. Both the qualifier and main track are straigtforward, just long! I did it for the first time this year and bloody loved it. I'll be back this year for sure.

Key is tough 5/6" bike (if you really want to race a DH make sure it genuinely is rideable up a few hills) and fitness. Of course you could ride it on any bike at your own pace and still have a blast.

The trails are probably no harder technically, but inners and fort bill won't prepare you for the effects of altitude, high density of riders, hot weather, arm pump or pure exhilaration of the epic descents. I will be going again for the 3rd time next year. Oh or of course the glacier!
