Help needed to build northshore trail

Recommended Posts

Just because it's a Northshore trail doesn't mean it has to be 6 feet off the ground with vertical climbs. In fact, if you want to focus on skills development, keep the stuff closer to the ground. This will not only be more forgiving when you do fall off, but will also use less wood and make it easier to expand it. I think Deamon posted a pic of a park in one of the Bryanston Bike Park threads that was built that way.

Yes hog i agree with you it wont be a gnarly 10foot ramp and stuff like that it will probably be a similar thing to that of sugarbowl at logwood or something like that stuff that was on the spruit a few months back

So where is this patch of land you got?

 

I always tell people (especially when they bitch about the current riding facilities) that I'll help build the trails if they can find a place to build them. Within reasonable traveling distance of course.
