Nice!! Laughing out loud Looks like heaps of fun. But these videos always make the riding look easier than it actually is. Shuttle runs, anyone? Smiling

that one is tops Smiling yeh have seen, see those gaps and drops though! the thing i like about this a-line business etc. is their incredible use of flow in the trails, they are so sweetly designed to smoothly be rolled without destroying yourself getting down..admittedly there are still plenty of death defying options, but those high berms and tabletops rather than doubles and all landings having nice long WIDE transitions instead of our so common drops to flat etc.. ahh the dream ..oh well better get me shovel and a decade Eye-wink

Thanks for the posts guys. I've been crying with happiness for the last 10 minutes.
That second one is sweet, those guys in Canadia build some lovely trails, but not too good for newbies or warm up runs!
Like you said Alex, the beauty of A-line is that it has more flexibility, you can roll it slower like that guy and just bust nice airs, or you can hit it race pace and it's just as much fun, or more Smiling. Crazy fun either way.
Gotta go book my flight.
