A couple of guys working extra hard this weekend to replace an old tired feature
that was put in during a few 2005 trail days.

Here they are working hard to prep the stringers.

The first rough in.

2nd set of supports.

Entrance Roughed in.

Work complete.

Only thing left to do is a perfect rock entrance, the exit and updated
connection to wood work below.

Thanks to all the riders who stopped and helped us carry all the rungs over from the stash spot. We wouldn't have got anywhere near as much work done without your help! :beer:

Nice work, thanks.

What trail is this?

This trip to Kelowna was definately an undertaking - Liam and I had been planning this project for 24 hours. We worked really hard to pull out all the stops in this video. We had slo-mo goggle shots; time lapses; pedal flips; outrageous product shots; unloading and loading the bike; walking through the field with your hand in wheat. At the end of the day this trip was all about just getting out and riding with all my friends.

Hell Yeah! Pipeline is running so smooth these days. This feature will be much better in the snow/ice than what was there previously. Can't thank you enough for your hard work.

Once we update the above sections this feature will fall into line and become what we all hope to be a section most riders will want to get off the bike and climb back up to do a few more times.

S.S your post had me lose all my coffee I was laughing so hard :) Give me a year or so and you will be saying "oh… that's why"

Smooth may have been an overstatement, but it feels a ton better on a trail bike than it did a couple years ago.

Looks great! I haven't been on Pipeline in quite a while. I'll make sure to check it out next time on Fromme.

Thanks for the hard work! :woot:

More work on the exit. I don't think it's perfect yet, but it rides well.

That exit looks perfect to me. Putting that big rock to roll down onto the next section, also to separate the lines is spot on.

Sweet work Duke.
