Angry’s shorter, rowdier brother to Super Plus. The first half is wide with big berms and a few jumps (Grade 4). If you’re not comfortable riding tight technical terrain, it’s best to use the 4WD track beside the trail to head back up after the jump section.

The trail then changes character completely, narrowing into a much more technical Grade 5. The lower half is skinny, steep, and rocky, with super-tight dropping corners and blind, non-rollable drops. Do not attempt unless you are very confident in advanced technical riding.

The trail exits onto Gracefield Road.

Access Info

Go right down the big berm heading down towards Gracefield instead of going straight earlier on to do "old" lower Super Plus.

      All of y’all are just hating on the trail bc you can’t do it
      simon-ob
      The now compulsory retained gap to go over the slip will be challenging for a lot of riders, even those confident on black/G5 trails. Timber lip is starting to protrude and you have a tiny landing before a tight corner. Check before attempting. Rest is a solid intro to black/g5 trails as noted with some steeps, tight dropping corners and exposure.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
