South of Heaven was a good option to avoid crowds if you have to (why I prefer to ride midweek but anyways…), lower Crank it up will divert lots of people from other trails on the lower half of the mountain. You'll just have to ride the other "secret trails" instead… overall improvement for the masses - it is WBP afterall…

I agree with that point.

I had a hell of a time trying to find where it started again after the crank it up work.

Where is located the start of South of Heaven?

I'll tell you if I'm allowed. You wouldnt really want to ride it anyways with all the CIU work. You also would want to do it with someone who knows where theyre going. By yourself, it could take some time to find the trail again after CIU.

Just let to let people know, Dirt Merchant is up and running, one kinda downer is its EXACTLY the same as last year. Same amount of bumpyness in the exact same places, but the trail is quite amazing. Go out and ride it. Its schweet!

To me, it felt a bit smoother and there's new dirt in some places. The trail is awsome when you know the right line.

I'm fine with the bottom, you just gotta pump in the right places and just go fast and its smooth.

Would be cool to put a kicker about 5 and a half feet infront of the "creek gap" to make a bigger option. I come ripping out of the berm into the two table and I have to racer pump the creek gap. Would be cool to have a bigger option cause you totally could have enough speed.
