Full Pop is an alternative line that branches to the right off of Half Pawp providing riders with over 270 feet of descent from the top of the bluff. The trail opens with some smooth and flowey jumps and a berm that leads riders to a small technical feature before the trail intersects the mid-level XC trail. Cross the XC trail for the very steep descent above a massive limestone slab. Adding to the degree of difficulty of this steep section are a few limestone rocks jutting out of the hillside. One's speed coming into the slab is the determining factor for how it will be ridden. It can be rolled into at lower speed. A little more speed lets riders jump onto the slab. A lot of speed will let one lily pad off the slab into the left-handed catch berm. And the fastest, bravest riders can possibly launch over the entire slab into the catch berm if they don't touch the brakes and have nerves of steel.

There is a small drop off of the slab into the berm so even if riders roll it, there is that technical challenge coming into the berm. Another small drop is built into the bottom of the berm just for fun. The trail crosses Lowrider before a little rock feature and a series of jumps and the trail ends at the bottom of the hill at the start of Jekyll & Hyde.
