Heres some pictures from the pump track I'm working on behind my house in Charleston. Its more of a pedal and pump track because its kind of hill'y where its being built, but its all i have to work with and I have all the dirt I could ever need. once its complete, you'll be able to roll into the big step down, the butter drop, a cheese wedge jump with hill roll-in, and a soon to be new trail once I'll done with the track. so enjoy! more to come later this week! still a bit wet back there, but should be ride-a-ble by this weekend as long as it doesn't rain again.

Count me in for sure. I will let you know the dates as soon as I have them.

Here is a pump track I helped a buddy build just outside Daytona Beach last year.

Hey guys, looks like it might rain tonight, which means the dirt should be soft behind the house for some digging. I was being lazy working on my fish tank so I kind of didn't get to finish the first rythem section before it got a bit dry. so if it rains.. I'll be working if anyone wants to help out!

sweet doug.... I just got the goahead to build a new slalom course at a mtb park near my house.
Think they are going to let me build a pumptrack as well.
I have ideas of a 360degree berm and two levels to the track, I'll post some drawings to critique when I am done drawing the plans...
