How can slopestyle really explode when there's so few facilites of this nature that are open to the everyday rider? I know in the UK we are blessed to have some awesome Dirt Jumps, XC & DH but I don't know of a single place that could be truly categorised as Slopestyle. I'd kill to hit a line like this (ok maybe about half the size!)... I just hope that the exposure gained from this will mean that building such a course will be more financially viable through increased demand.
