Technical Analysis of Features and Obstacles
Even though the Roller Coaster Trail is classified as a Black Diamond, it heavily rewards riders who can combine technique with raw speed. The trail starts with a fast descent that instantly drops you into the rhythm. Mastering the berms and the rock garden section is crucial.
Key Sections to Master:
- **Berm Corners:** The trail relies on four massive berms. These corners are perfectly sculpted for speed, but require precise body positioning and an aggressive attack position to maximize flow. Your exit speed from the berms directly dictates your success in the following sections.
- **Rock Garden:** A short but demanding rock garden is located near the middle of the trail. Don't try to ride it too slowly – speed is your friend here to skip over the rough stuff. Keep your weight centered with level pedals and let the bike do the work under you.
- **Jumps and Drops:** The trail features a series of tabletops and smaller drops. They are all designed to be rollable with minimal air time, and are entirely optional. Always inspect the landing on your first run. If you aren't feeling confident, take the clearly marked 'chicken line'.
