Description:
Severe erosion and pot holes on almost every burn as of last weekend (I'm writing this on Tuesday). It was like this the week before so clearly it haven't been fixed.
Winsports solution to a couple of exposed rocks ,that were more features than an inconvenience, at the trail head of laser fade and safari planet was to add loose sand deeper than my tires. It's already caused a couple crashes (not me) and near misses. Luckily this weekend they solved it by adding more loose sandy dirt. The berm after the old log drop is also very sandy and filled with holes.
The breaks bumps are really, really, bad. I've injured my hands pretty badly when I took my trail bike instead of the DH bike, unless you have high speed compression I do not reccomend the lower half and the roadside sections. That being said to avoid the worst exit onto dragon slayer on the left side of the old roadside gap jump.
If anyone working for winsport reads this please pass it onto the trail crew.
