I've only been through it once, and my mind is still reeling from its unexpected size. :D Amazing though. From the Sidetrack/Duffman/No Duff/FT junction, follow past the bridge, past the step down. The big booter is somewhere just after the step down. I'll try to check it out again tomorrow while it's still super buff.

Some nice work on Lower FT for sure.

Those two jumps are really fun. First a wee hip to the right, then a nice launch into the berm.

Can't wait to ride them again.

It didn't take you guys long to get the Rocket Surgeons edit out. Wasn't a week or so ago?

Pretty amazing how trails I've done a hundred times before suddenly show brand new lines. Not sure what I like most… the No Joke line off the road or Yoann raping the rock at the Creekside junction.

Great riding.

Well, it is after all a DROP-in Clinic, not Roll-in Clinic.

I love how a disclaimer about riding within your limits pops up while Matthews is boosting the No Joke road entrance triple (quad?) with a no-hander hahaha. Always impressive to see the speed these guys carry.

What are lift lines typically like next week (week before Crankworx)? Thinking of taking Wednesday off and coming up to demo some new bikes. Is it starting to get busy by then? Hoping to bang off a ton of laps.

That vid is the first time I've ever seen someone air over it :)

What's in the best shape right now? Any trails not to be missed? Last time I was up C-more was just soup, how's it looking these days?

C'more is meh. Freight train from sidetrack split down got quite a rebuild, pretty sweet.

Haha. Wednesday is the new Saturday! Super busy last week. I was talking to a guy in operations and I think WB set a new record for the bike park. Also, a friend had a really hard time finding a rental bike yesterday. Everything was sold out. The good news was that there were no Garbo lift lines (I think the expert only sign keeps ridership down). So if you are looking for a chill/quiet day in the park, you are probably going to have to wait until September.

Finally got to ride again after an unscheduled clinic visit.

Bottom of FT is tits. Big Fat Oprah tits. Jumps are bigger than before and butter.

How long has Dirty been closed? What needed work? That s curve after the step down and before the bridge?
