TTFs on TrailBerm, Drop, Jump
Ball n Jack begins with a series of tabletop jumps followed by several berm turns. The berms start off big and wide and then turn tighter and steeper before the trail straightens out at the bottom for a fast finish. A notable feature in the middle of the berm section is a 4-5 foot rock drop/jump which will put a huge smile on your face, but if you’re not ready for the airtime it can easily be avoided on the left side of the trail.
***The bottom of the trail has recently been rerouted. It has some rollers and optional jump features. It now ends with a split at the Big Ash Powerline intersection with a tight berm.

This trails pretty darn sick for what it is. It has quite a few jumps and a fun Little Rock kicker “cheese wedge” that can be sent quite deep. Always a blast going down this trail.

All I can ever think about this trail is the rowdy, straight, steep, no-brakes section about half way down. ZZZIIIIINNNNGGGG!
