Dual Slalom - Blue

The Dual Slalom is the most fun you can have riding against your mates. It starts off with a starting ramp to a run into a kicker on the flat before you start descending around a sweeping corner to a large berm followed by a series of three or four tabletops. The best place to start is at the park.

Four Cross (4X) - Red

The National Standard 4X course allows you to race four riders side by side. Again, starting on a starting ramp (although this one is much higher than the Dual) there are doubles, tabletops, speed humps, big berms, a triple jump and a step up to step down near the end.

Downhill Runs

These are short as there is not much height but there is something for every level with kickers, doubles, medium-sized drops, big drops, large gaps, steep descents and progressive drops.

The Bull Run starts with a three-metre drop that has bomb holes, large gap jumps and tight turns. Full face helmet and additional body armour are recommended for this course as it is graded as black-severe.
The Snake Run starts from the same point as the Bull Run above and rolls out across the contour to start with. It traverses over rooted sections, over bomb holes, large gap jumps and round large berms. Body armour and a full-face helmet are advised. This is the most technical downhill course in the park with a Black - severe grading.
Mini DH - This starts from the close to the top of the Dual Slalom course. Starting with a small tabletop into 2 small drops before a slightly bigger one. After there is a small 12ft gap jump before some tighter corners finishing towards the bottom of the hill. Graded red.
Black Shark Attack Line. This has everything and is not for the faint-hearted. Check out the video under the video tab.
