Starting at the same place as Point Brake, don't let the the first swoopy berms fool you. Once you as past the A/B - log ride or huck off tree stump - then this trail gets steep and gnarly. When you finally reach the bottom of the gully the really (really) good riders have a hip jump down. For mere mortals (you must be a pretty good rider just to get this far) there is a B line round to the right. The trail then joins Point Brake again for the last few turns.
