Devils Ridge is a steep downhill trail. The beginning of the trail is an off camber roll into a high speed section. The next section is the most technical part of the track, a gap jump that links straight into a very steep stepped roll, then to add some more spice another roll off a log and a corner. A rest period after this before you get onto the ridge, where its a high speed flow though rough loam and roots. The end you roll off a steep bank onto the road. (If you struggle with the first part of the track then either walk it and check it out or dont ride it).

Track starts above Rainbow Warrior on the north side of the hill.
