Fogelsode #22: Dry Trails!

Apr 5, 2010
by Jack Fogelquist  
It's been a sunny week here in Santa Cruz, making for some dry, fast trails! Iggy and I cruised out to enjoy the hard-packed dirt on a fun, flowy trail that's filled with fast jumps and sick corners!

More details and video inside!After about a week of no rain, Iggy and I drove up to a fast, flowy trail that's filled with jumps and berms. It felt so nice not worrying about sliding out, as there wasn’t a patch of mud in sight! You could just go as fast as you wanted, confidently hitting each corner. It ended up being a blast as we found a couple new lines that we’d never seen before.

Enjoy!

 Im amazed at how even when you watch a good video, it seems to make a rider seem slower than they really are. NOT YOU GUYS. Damn, pinned the whole time! great edit and makes me wanna shred!

 suspension is supposed to use the whole amount of travel. it would be pointless to have 200mm of travel and have it set to only use 150mm.

 its meant to use it when it needs to now all the time.

 a downhill fork is designed to be fully active the entire time that way you can stay glued to the ground.

 Are you blind? He was up in the upper half of the travel the entire time....It's how you want a DH fork to ride.
