He guys I have just found out that Cressy has undergone a massive change do you guys have any info? I think its go bigger and better jumps. If you have been tell us how it was and if you have a video even better
Yeah, first time I went through there after the changes I smashed my left pedal on that rock at high speed and almost went OTB. Also a little disappointed they bermed up that off-camber left hander afterwards, used to be so fun drifting around that.Road it yesterday, it's great. The jumps are all easy but good fun! The only modification I didntlike was just as you get into the big traverse at the bottom, it drops away right before the first jump of three, and they've put in 2 big rocks that you need to ride between. I nearly killed myself as i drifted through that turn, could've been really nasty... I'm not sure why they're there, someone will hurt themselves badly.
So look out for it!
Same....large rock on inside of the old off camber section...Yeah, first time I went through there after the changes I smashed my left pedal on that rock at high speed and almost went OTB.

Yep that's the rock!I like what the have done. New rock garden with the drops is awesome.
New jumps are cool, but I would have prefered table tops given how much pedalling there is on cressy.
I don't hit many jumps often because to carry enough pace to hit them I would be pedalling like mad.
At least with table tops you can still enjoy them at slower speeds and not die if it goes wrong.
In related news, there is one rock I am not a fan off on that trail.
Search "cressy premature end" on YouTube. Things were mostly going great until about 3.:30.
+1 probably OK on a DH rig, but definitely scary on a little bike.They should make all the jumps tables, more like a-line in Whistler.
Yeah I would have to agree, never noticed 'that rock' before - hmmm, guess what I will be focussing on next time down Cressy's...All of the new jumps were fine/fun. something to work up to if you aren't confident.
The only reason you needed to pedal a bit into them was due to the strong head wind. On a low wind day they will be fine.
Never even noticed "the rock". As with every trail in the world, you should do first run at casual speed incase things have changed, trees down etc.
I say good work youies trail crew!!
