    Berm, Bridge

This is another favorite directional loop that has lots of little berms and small whoops to can a bit of air before diving into the next berm. Winds through thick vegetation where the treas are a bit sparse for parts of it. Goes up and down a bit, with a final climb that takes you to the top of the final big berm descent. Hit them fast and hard from one to the next for some sideways fun,
