[Eastern States Cup]

Perfect weather on tap for the weekend and a perfect time to get some hot laps on the July 3-5 Plattekill Eastern States Cup Pro/Cat1 track. Stop by the mountain and we'll show you the course. As usual the course will be fun and challenging with more than a few classic Plattekill featurse thrown in.


Hint: double side...bus stop

 

[jonKranked]

bus stop?

bus stop

 

[jonKranked]

¿que?

 

[Sandwich]

lol que?

a google image search for "bus stop plattekill" turns up some drop that I'm not sure I've seen before.

I take it the double side will be running this weekend, then?

 

[Eastern States Cup]

and why do you think a feature would be called "bus stop"

Hint #2: It is not a drop.

 

[jonKranked]

something that makes you dump all your speed?

 

[Sandwich]

is it a table top?

 

[bfrich]

Can we get the same great course description for the GES#3 Platty Course, like you gave for the ESC #3 MT SNow course..........please !

 

[IH8Rice]

something that makes you dump all your speed?

or a place that makes everyone wait around or stop before going into it

Wasn't this called something else in the past (I recall Geoff U being in a short platty video re: this drop in 2006?) This is the one where you have to go up, then across the trail to hit it?

 

[jonKranked]

[Jim Mac]

[BUNKERCHUNKS]

They get closer and closer every post
hint : left turn big flat rock

 

[soul-skier]

Next course is sick. Rode it with Nolan last weekend. Bunks, has Delta House hit the Bus Stop exit (riders right of the tree) w/ a weed wacker??? Should make for some interesting lines. Couple years ago I watched Jergen practically wall-ride the right side entrance and exit riders left of the tree. So sick. He shook the friggin ground.

I'm sure it will be perfect come this weekend, but it was fine this past weekend. We re:decked and added post to" The Scotsmen" the top decking is an exact replica of what was there, plus other improvements to existing stunts.

 

[Eastern States Cup]

This is what Bunkers is trying to post up.

Scotsman Reborn !!

And a BIG NOTE: This is NOT on the course

 

[BUNKERCHUNKS]

Thgis is what Bunkers is trying to post up.

And a BIG NOTE: This is NOT on the course

I wish my dad was a downhiller.

 

[bfrich]

Well I say we adopt VooDoo on Fathers Day Sunday I think he's old enough to be my Dad and your Grandpa....

Hahaha! Nice!!

 

[jonKranked]

Well I say we adopt VooDoo on Fathers Day Sunday I think he's old enough to be my Dad and your Grandpa....

why do you think I always refer to him as Grandpa Ulmer?

 

[Jim Mac]

Rich, that is so, so....words cannot describe the vision that I just had. A very virile VooDoo being your father, most likely spreading his seed at age 3! That's what the math tells me, at least

OK, it's not that bad. I ofter tell JonK that I could be his father in a WVA kind of way!

 

[bfrich]

Jim ........ just go with it ...... don't crunch the numbers

 

[Jim Mac]

Jim ........ just go with it ...... don't crunch the numbers

Rich, sometimes the cold hard facts are scarier than fantasy!

 

[soul-skier]

My fantasy = The Scotsman IS part of the race course!!!

 

[Sandwich]

Pretty sure I rode the course this weekend and I still don't understand what bus stop is....

 

[soul-skier]

Bus stop is toward the upper-middle of the pro/ex track. Its the sharp left turn into a steep, rocky chute that exits right turn onto an access road followed by a long, fast straightaway.

 

[IH8Rice]

people like to stop there because of the small root drop thats right there.

oh wait is this the one that is like a right turn, then some rocks, then the root drop is like kind off camber into a left berm onto the ski slope?
