      This trail is fast, has some well supported berms and several "old man jumps" that are of the right proportion considering the target blue audience. Overall, it is a good time and works nicely into a loop that has you climbing windy and descending Stunty to the other side.

      Super fun, short n' sweet trail — lots of little jumps and big berms, and the 180 berm near the end is fun. Looks like some new feature is being built as well.

      When did Cranbrook get a hand cut flow trail? This trail is absolutely amazing ride it into roller coaster and Bam you have an amazing loop. I hope one day they build the trail above it man that would be awesome.

      Like others have said, don't bike up this trail you're just asking to get someone seriously hurt.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
