Building a freeride track

[Kammy]

what sort of area is best for building a freeride track have some idea but want to get your opinion

 

[dh rider]

somewhere rocky with nice dirt and no sand and not to steep

 

[Kammy]

so we dont want it steep with trees 4 ns and big boulders

 

[crashtestboy]

probably not worth it unless your really set on making something quality,
alot of hard work in building

if your up for it though go for it

 

[mustard]

Riley where is there else to build a freeride track

build a nice race track instead. faaaaast and flowy

 

[Kammy]

it would be good if we raced but no we jsut want an area where we can build ns and rock gardens jumps drops and have fun not a bloody race track

im not saying u should race but can u buils sterdy north shore?? is it gonna be worth it or is it gonna be like 2 ft off the ground?

and who told you race tracks dont have drops or rock gardens :roll:

 

[Kammy]

no one but we are not as good as you so the stuff we do which we think is challenging wont be for you thats all im not paying u out or anything

there's no point making it easy (ie suited for you now). The idea is to make it so its near impossible for you to ride now, so you progress onto it. Ideally the area should be steep and rocky, but with a decent run out. When you start building it you need it to flow otherwise it will be a POS, and the faster it is the nicer it will feel. If you build northshore you need the appropriate rocks - do NOT build onto existing trees as it will be knocked down as soon as it is seen. Make sure that wooden structures are built well (using new wood, not old bits) and bolted together nicely (make sure it is bolted into rocks etc).
