This season, GoPro has supported the build which has allowed the Joyride team to enhance the track and build a brand new custom feature for all levels of riding.

The GoPro Family Cross

Speaking of build team, this year’s course was designed by none other than Paddy Kaye. Paddy and his company, Joyride Bike Parks, are world-renowned for their trail building skills and results. If you have ridden the bike park, you have ridden one of Paddy’s trails.

Not only are Paddy and his boys skilled builders, they know how to test their product as well.

The final feature of the course is the multi-line hit through the GoPro arches.

 Seems dangerous dangerous to me. experts always ride with the fear of landing on a beginner on the next jump and beginners get overtook in like every second turn

 Soon! Our scientists are still calculating air-time on them to make sure we don't interfere with aircraft.

 Do it! I just got back from there last night. Drove up from Portland, OR. The drive isn't bad if you time it right through the major cities (Seattle, WA and Vancouver, BC). You can drive there from SF, just chill one day here or in Seattle!

 You definitely should. I was there 2014 and want to go back so bad. next year... Every Mountainbiker should've been there at least once in their lifetime.

 It's still a lot of fun, but not as good as last year. Less bonus/optional lines.

 That thing was loose as shit last Saturday! Pretty bad really. Hopefully it packs down. Better than the man sized braking bumps after the GLC roll though...
