The beginner flow/jump trail at Rhyolite Bikepark. This trail starts off with a small rock garden, and then descends down to the Rhyolite Skills Park. Expect small rollers, medium and large sized berms and some small rocks that have worked their way onto the tread in places. This trail is arguably the most flowy one at Rhyolite Bikepark, and is fun for riders of all skill levels.

Beginners can feel what it is like to roll through a trail, and advanced shredders can gap between the rollers. This trail is very fun and family friendly. It is BIKES ONLY and DOWNHILL ONLY.
