Levels & EXP
Every race earns EXP. EXP builds your Account Level — an account-wide status track that shows how much you’ve played.
- Permanent. Your Account Level never resets between seasons.
- Earned, not bought. Levels can’t be purchased outright. Boosters can speed up how fast you earn EXP, but racing is the only path — nothing skips the track.
- Not competitive power. Account Level is a “time invested” signal. It never affects your skill rating, your bracket, or a scored run — a high level is a badge of dedication, not an advantage.
- It opens doors. Some tournaments require a minimum Account Level to enter — the gate that keeps events for riders who’ve put in the laps. Premium riders skip the level requirement (access only — never a better bracket, never extra attempts).
Both a fast finish and clean tricks add EXP, so improving and playing more both move you forward.
What a level pays
Every level up pays GEARS, and each level pays more than the one before it.
- Every 5th level is a milestone — a bigger payout and a rank badge.
- Every 20th level grants a bike (levels 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100). Cosmetic, like every bike.
- Rewards are credited the moment you cross the level, whether or not you open the panel. The level-up screen confirms what you already have; there is nothing to claim and nothing to miss.
Level rewards are paid in GEARS you can spend. They never touch your leaderboard score, your rating or a ranked run.
