The track itself mainly features safe multi-level tabletop jumps, ranging from
|
|
12ft to over 90ft in length. There are 3 “Whoop Sections” each consisting
|
|
of a different jump depth and spacing configuration, also a 5-jump “Rhythm
|
|
Section” for those desiring to “double-in” and “triple-out”.
|
|
There are many “bermed” turns as well as flat turns that will challenge
|
|
<em>(or develop)</em> your riding skills. Three of the rider favorites are a 25ft
|
|
“Camel-Back” double, a 14ft “Step-Up”, and an “Ant-Hill”
|
|
where you have to turn on the up face, then accelerate on the down face, as it
|
|
leads to a 90ft “Uphill-Triple” tabletop.
