Crazy Carter is another option for riders skipping Twister which allows them some single track. The trail starts with a brief but easy climb and then quickly starts to descend into a flowy section which includes a progression drop into a dirt wall ride/hip. Followed up by some berms, roots, and rock steps and a 60ft wavy boardwalk. The small climb mid trail offers a progressive rock garden and then its a flowy down to the gradually narrowing skinny.
