Key sections to master
01
Berms and jumps
A series of berms and jumps demands speed and a clean line. Inspect the jumps before your first full-speed run.
02
Rock garden
The rock sections demand the right line and careful bike control. Do not brake hard in the middle of the rocks.
03
Steeps and drops
Steeper pitches and drops demand concentration at every moment. Never ride the trail without protective gear.
Safety
The trail has a high risk of injury. Ride within your level, do not ride alone and check the trail after rain.
