Revolution Bike Park: The New Revit Jump Line - Video
Buried deep in the beautiful moss covered valleys of North Wales, miles from the fumes and noise of overpopulation, lies the incredible Revolution Bike Park. It's home to a renowned network of much-loved trails which are constantly improving and expanding due to the hard work of the Revo crew. The work never stops and the latest addition to the trails has taken things to another level.
Over the last three months, James Foster (co-owner) and Dave Jenkinson have been hand crafting a ribbon of perfection that flows like a river through a magical scene from Mordor. The untouched, natural woodland is in stark contrast to the manicured berms, square edges and groomed transitions of the new Revit jump line. This trail was born out of the infectious enthusiasm of two talented trail builders creating something they've always wanted to ride. It shows.The result is a level of craftsmanship normally reserved for watch makers.

James has been posting photos of the build online and I, like many others, have been watching the progress with baited breath. Every post is greeted with the inevitable question from at least one of his followers... 'When will it be open?'. Well, that time has come people. Fill your boots. Check out the video above and see what you could be shredding this weekend.
Thanks to James, Dave, Sasha, Tim and all the Revo Crew for making it another cracking trip across the border.

Looks like he s in good hands... I personnaly find it completely stupid for the pro riders to keep 5+ bikes just because it was a good memory to have ridden this bike at world champs.. imagine, minnaar would have 18-20 dh bikes stored at his home ? Non sens: The pro riders have these bikes for free. The majority of these magnificent unique edition bikes should be sold off and at the highest price and the money should go to charity actions.

Looks good in the photos for sure, but the top section looked like it lacked flow - maybe because it's new. I'll reserve judgement until I've ridden it, but looks like if you carried any speed you'd be landing into the next take off, especially as it gets worn in and faster. Although it's only dirt!!! Wouldn't take much to adjust it in the long run if that was the case.
Great work though, looks utterly stunning and most importantly fun!!!!
