I shuttled the juniors on our team this weekend for some nice fall DH riding. We were able to get a couple decent shots of the step up on our trail, thought I would share them.

Chaz hitting the small side of the step up, none of his pics on the large side turned out.


Chase looks like he is just floating in the air


2 shot Sequence of Alec




Sequence of Max when he nose cased the haybails, good thing they were there or it would have been a bad crash.




Max doing a much better job of the step up


Here is a shot of just the step up


It was awesome to see all the juniors hit the large side of the step up. The jump can be very intimidating with a 16' gap and about 4' step up.

Nice with some riding pictures and a cool step-up. I like that it has two options.

My riding season is over and I miss riding even more now seeing these pictures.

Brian pics of that trail suck it just looks like a hillside with a faint dirt line going through it. That is why it is so damn fun to ride.

See:

This trail owns Chaz he has yet to make a run without crashing


I do have other pics of the jump trail that you have yet to ride.
Looking down from the start platform


The first two corners


Looking back at the third corner


Three back to back berms


The lip of a jump right out of the third berm in the last picture


Table followed by a step down hip


Step down hip


Steep s curve section


Halfway down the s curve, shows the drop option on the right side


The last corner coming out of the s curve


Looking back at the last s curve corner and you can see the landing of the drop option.


Now for where we could final get the Bobcat

Yeah, that trail isn't really for race training, just fun to ride. You could easily ride a hard tail on it, well, maybe not easily.

There is another trail on that hill that is extremely technical and is perfect for vision and other training.

Sick! Good work putting the finishing touches on that bad boy Cory and Michael! Good to see my berm holding up:)

There is one pic of the other trail on the first page with the blue and orange tape. We cleared a wide path of brush and nasty(bike destroying) rocks then taped it. This is specifically so you can learn to pick lines. It is similar to the rocks sections in the trees at Angel Fire, except it stays that way for the entire trail. Times for the Buells and me are at the 2 minute mark, the trail is tough but a ton of fun.

The trail with jumps is for pure fun and nothing else.

The trails are in Colorado

Here are some pics of the race style trail most before we had the tape up so it can be hard to see the trail.

The trails turns to the riders right and goes to the just above the bottom left corner of the pic.


The next two pics I was in the trail when I took the pics






The trails turns left and exits at the bottom right corner of the pic.

wow guys, awesome work, it looks like a resort out there... wherever that is!
soooo friggin CLEAN!

i like the logs on the step-up, what kind of dent do those put in funds? i'm tired of piling thousands of pounds of dirt only to have it run off the sides of the lip...


just wondering because FactoryCostcoDH and I are going to be doing massive amounts of building on a friends property and want everything to look clean like your work...

kind of a dumb question, but did you have to get approvals for that project or is that private property? if you had to get approvals from the city or whatever, who did you talk to? city officials-wise...
I just need to know because i want to ask my city if they can set aside a few acres of land out in the boondocks for us to build on and maintain...(ive never done it before, i just turned 16 and used to think i could build anywhere... learned my lesson there!)

Great trail. For sure fun to ride and it's still dry out there. Around here it's wet everywhere. So wet that after 1/3 of the trail I've decided not to use gogles as I've seen nothing threw them :P

Just what everyone here is saying: that looks mint.

I'd love to have the time to build stuff like that here in Morzine.

Then not tell anyone but your best mates...

The trails are on private property. The land owner paid me and the Buells to build the trails. We are going to be building more next year.

As for the logs on the jump they are old fence posts on the property from a old horse fence.
