#!markdown Nobody is buying videos of riding on the north shore period, mainly because riding styles, preferences, and bike technology moved on from what made the shore famous. Take a poll and see who still wants to ride 10 foot high skinnies and creek beds. I'm not saying there isn't a place for old-school "north shore" type riding, but those who actually prefer that type of riding are few and far between, (as evidence, witness the difference in rider traffic at Whistler on, say, A-line vs. Clown Shoes). As an outsider, I would suggest that there are more beginner and intermediate trails being developed/improved by the NSMBA than advanced trails because those who see the need for these trails are those who choose to get involved. If you prefer the advanced trails and NSX 1 type stunts, then get involved and avoid the risk of having your illegal trail wiped out by a pissed off landowner. The most effective and positive way to have an impact is by getting involved, not eschewing the group that is.
