Indigo Flow is the newest trail in the Santos trail system. It was named after the Eastern Indigo snake which is found in the local area. It's a flow trail built by the guys at Sensus R.A.D. Trails, a not for profit trail building company started by the freeride legend Cam Zink (just Google his name). The trail starts out with a steep wooden roll-in, into a set of table-tops and berms into a final table-top which exits you into a field and into the second section.

The second section consists of another wooden roll-in, a 16ft table-top with a tombstone on one side for people wanting to boost, which leads into a wall ride then into a fast set of S-berms. From there you cruise across a small field and into a hip jump where you can hit the natural rock wall. From there, a short climb leads to the top of the final section, a series of increasingly tighter dual slalom-esque type berms that end with a shark fin hip.

EDIT: The very last section, the climb to the S-berms or Bermese Mountain, is no longer part of the flow trail. Now, the second section stops after the small rollers and shoot back up to the right, exiting near Banana Hammock.

Access Info

The trail starts at the top of the section where the big clay jumps are, in the Vortex area. Go up the lime rock road next to the small wooden jump line and hang a left just befor the gate into the big jump section. Follow the trail around to the right and up the hill to the start of the trail.
