The third event of Marble League 2018 was held on the 15th of February 2018. The event was the Halfpipe.

Event

The Halfpipe features a whole marble team rolling down a halfpipe. All four marbles from two teams roll down a chute onto the halfpipe and try to stay rolling for as long as possible while slowly making their way towards the bottom of the halfpipe. The time for the slowest three marbles across the line are added together to give the team their score. The results from each group are combined and the slowest team across the finish line wins. If there is a tie, the team's slowest marble's time will be used to break the tie. Each team has two attempts and the best time their final result.

Trivia

• Event 3 was originally Curling, but the event was cancelled due to disapproval by the IMC for being too boring. The event was replaced by Halfpipe. A new version of Curling was scheduled as a future event.
