Thanks! I hope the Trail Sports have been awesome for you.
I’d suggest that (aside from drops or the longest rolls) most riders could take the Growler (with aggressive rubber) and ride it down whatever trails they normally hit on their bike comfortably.
For example, if they ride a Nomad down Ned’s the Growler will be fine down Ned’s - same/same for Bobsled or Boogieman.
The biggest difference between riding this Growler, my Honzo, a Nomad, or etc down these trails comes down to speed. Especially when the trails are dry and loose or greasy.
I’d call myself a strong novice rider and hopefully haven’t oversold my riding ability. I take plenty of breaks climbing No Quarter and for example, I walk a couple sections of Grannies and Bookwus (my current favourites) and skip the biggest optional lines on Upper Oil Can (a trail I road the Growler on plenty of times).
