nice run and super lines man.

looks to be more than one trail option down there now?

I picked up a Contour HD prior to a trip to whistler last year and regret not getting the GoPro..... Mainly for mounting options.

Full run minus the fire road.

Do you normally ride without gloves?

Not surprised you had arm pump by the end. Smiling Over 8 minutes.

Was wondering about the gloves too - was thinking "you're brave!". My hands get so slippery from sweat I can barely hang onto the bars if I don't wear gloves, and that's just by the end of the Allambie downhill at Manly Dam!

i lost my gloves on the first day down there and decided to go without. I actually had a lot more grip without the gloves on the grips that i have (odi somethings). But it hurt a lot more when i came off Laughing out loud

And yes at the bottom ive got massive arm pump, back and thigh cramps lol.

That was my second full run that day, the first was a screamer but i forgot to turn the camera on Sad

I second the sweet riding and good lines comment.

BTW, I think all the lines are the same as they used to be, there didn't appear to be any new trail there, except for one or two corners that seem to have had a new line cut into them. And there is that new little jump at the approach to the end. But I could be wrong.

Can't wait until I get back up there again. Smiling
