you guys should build.....

hmm..... No.
Faster, and steeper. I like when the trail has a big wave to it as you descend, kind of like a downhill roller coaster! Im just ranting.
yeah, like tempest but all the way down, and no pedaling uphill to get to it.
I say it's time to pull back on making all the new fast flowy/slopestyle like trails and do atleast one new rocky trail, along the lines of a Ripper 2 possibly. But what do I know, i'm not in charge.
That thing is actually built on Europes biggest n00b hill, see's more traffic then an LA highway
Someone else mentioned a few months ago about building an elevated wood section down monin wood or whatever is left of it and I think that would be sweet. Dont see why sometime like that would not be able to be built at Diablo. looks considerably safer that Chute de sacthum although I here thats close to being removed.
your telling him?

nuf ced.
Thank you! bout time someone said it...stupid immature kid that still hasnt hit puberity!
omg that was a good one i must say! but there you go put more wood on the fire.
This is because they have trails like alpine marked with a diamond. People ride that and say 'well, that trail can't be that hard' and get stuck on trails like, SDS, triple roll, twist and the Jack with a 3-4' drop to flat.
so travis and mike shut up go bitch somewhere else but not pinkbike, pinkbike rocks they are professional bitchers. anyway back on topic, wood is expensive, inurance would not let them, where would they put this feature. so i say build it at local trails, make really, really sketchy and just huck it. i have just learned that whatever you want built at diablo, you have to just do yourself.
thats what i want
so then i could practice tricks without being scared
but then again where would they put it???
yeah and i wish diablo would make at least 1 or 2 flowy and pretty fast north shore trails...that would be super cool
elevated bridges for no reason are dumb
Yeah! Like triple roll!
how about no retarded air dome. on the east coast we downhill or huck it. tricks are for kids. and if you wanted to do tricks or ride bridges high in the air you can make it yourself. what diablo really needs are fast rocky trails with some pocket berms and rock faces. all these bridges and foam pits seem fun untill you actually do them. i have done both. a bridge high in the air feels no different than a bridge closer to the ground both of which are very lame to ride. its like riding a sidewalk. there is a foam pit at a skatepark in lakewood nj. its called the incline club.
^^yeah if tis flat, its similar to a sidewalk, but not if it has drops and step ups and turns and little wallrides, then its different
like i said, a north s hore trail or two would be fun

agree^^yeah if tis flat, its similar to a sidewalk, but not if it has drops and step ups and turns and little wallrides, then its different

i am not disagreeing with you i am just saying the chances of those being built at diablo are very slim due to type of terrain. there are some spots that could be fun but also it would be a lot of money to build it. there is a spot on the mountain that many people dont know about that has the best place for bridges i have ever seen. but the time and money would be redonkulous. i feel very negative saying this but its true. if you want it you have to build it yourself.
yeah it probably is true, shawn said himself he's not planning any northshore, the problem is , i have no place to build
well , this is a tidbit of info i recently aquired. most people originally startd making shore style trails with bridges because the bridges were meant t oget over wetlands and other things that are difficulf to ride over. i bet most of the people who ride half on wood would be very excited t oride on a dirt trail and wouldnt make bridges where they arent needed. so why dont you guys go check those trails out
that is a stupendus idea travis. make it like a stunt park like it is in the winter. have like sick technical features and a ****load of jumps. but then if you do that it will take away from the main mountain and no one would ride it anymore.
