I think they should lay down all the fake boobs onto the Pro/Ex DH course, and we can jump those instead.
They will be built better than any jumps they have had in the past. And um, bigger too.:D

I believe Banche and Stoneysnake have ridden it, maybe they'll chime in....

I hear the coarse is built with speed in mind, and a person who is in good shape will really do well.....

there was mention of a off camber rooted section that is gonna be fun when wet......

i haven't ridden it,although i will this sat. and sun.,after putting in a few trail building hours. stoneysnake rode it last week,and said it was great,not so technical as years past.he says it has a good bit of off camber! regardless i'm sure hulk and those guys have done an incredible job. they are all riders and know what everyone likes!!!!

I had to clean that mud out of my Nucleon. Oh my god it sucked. It took about an hour.

The new course is on the opposite side of the Western Express chairlift, and will not cross under the chairlift. I haven't had the honor of riding it yet, maybe this weekend if I can come down to volunteer.

Maybe even have the race sponsored by Cross Your Heart or some plastic surgeon of questionable repute :o:
Like Appalaichan Augmentations? (but spelled correctly)


Maybe they will replace the section after the Wild Zone drop with stuff that doesn't suck.

good - bring on wildzone 2.0

it's good to switch things up. with a mountain like that, there are bound to be other morsels a la wildzone.

I didn't mind the 'big' aspects of it (but my knee did). I just couldn't stand two or so up hill/ off camber sections that led into some short but sketchy sections. No speed = no fun. Bottlenecks blow.
