    Berm, Bridge, Jump

One of four fast and fun machine-built flow lines that start at the Firebox Hub. This line starts with three progressively bigger table top jumps that can be sessioned by a short return trail back to the top and are great for building your jumping skills. Go the rest of the way down for some big berms and more jumps that lend themselves more to be scrubbed to maintain speed.

(All of the features on flow lines rollable and are meant to see riders progress as they build their skills.)
