Trail Eagle vs Shark
Rode this track today with wife. A grueling climb to the start Afast sweeping downhill in and out of bush which and times made it hard to adjust to light changes. Banked sweeping corners and sudden drops kept you on your toes, we bypassed the picnic table on our way to the bottom. Another track enjoyed by us.

This is a G4 trail by any definition and should be labelled as such. It’s a bit rich that Whaki ‘G3’ and this trail have the same grading. What’s the point if trails aren’t graded properly?

Is the name of the track taken from a film by Taika Waititi? Smile

Trail Eagle vs Shark
Sort of, Originally the trail was going to have the main line which soared like an Eagle, then there would be shark lines off to the side which would rejoin the main trail. However, once built the trail was so fast that the shark lines didn't work. So it's now just Eagle.

Great ride, it's a 3-4 grade but very manageable if you take care. There is a rooted section but not to hard

Bottom is now no longer a track. Had to ride through ruts and mud caused by logging.
