S&S C grade reversal corner
Just started a bit of work on our new DH trail. Skinny Mal and the crew have been going gang busters doing all the hard work just went up today to do a bit of the fiddly stuff.
It all starts with a fast naturally cambered section and then swings up into this corner.
This gives us a natural grade reverse to help control water but has the issue of having the possibility of water sheeting across the trail in the braking and turning zone

New trail tool
Just point it where you want to go and it burns the trail in

For this one Skinny set a long exposure and got me to ride back up the trail, leaving a bight line of exposure as the light moves up the trail

I'm so fast not even the flash can catch me
Freaking light saber
Self filmed
Picked up this frame a while ago but as I hadn't had time for DH of late it's been collecting dust.
Last week I had a bit of spare time so thought I'd build it up with parts off my old Norco in the hopes it would inspire me to get back into it.
Here's my first test ride with some self shot footage using the contour 1080p taped to trees or set up on the back of the ute and stuff.
